(Community Matters) Stefano Aluffi is an old friend of Suzanne’s and obviously knows everyone in the art world and social scene in Rome. My right-side dinner companion Wednesday night whispered that he’s really a count (she’s actually a princess).
Stefano (at center in picture) hosted a very small group of American Academy supporters in his home for lunch yesterday.

(Community Matters) Perfect timing in so many ways – joined Suzanne and her American Academy group for today’s opening of MAXXI, Rome’s new National Museum for 21st Century Art. It opened to the press this morning (we were given credentials) and I imagine opened to the public later today.
Zaha Hadid designed this museum as an open and liveable urban space devoted to contemporary creativity, art & architecture.

Miuccia Prada, pardon my unsteady hand; she is lovely
w/ SuzanneThe event was held at their annex property overlooking the original Academy which is just as luscious an oasis at the top of Trastevere
