       National Gallery of 
        Modern and Contemporary Art 
        Monday, October 18, 2004 
      The FOCS 2004 social 
        dinner will be held in Rome at the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary 
        Art. The Gallery, which is closed on mondays, will be especially open 
        for FOCS participants only, so that we can enjoy the unique experience 
        of having an entire Italian Museum at our own disposal! 
         
        The social event will start with a guided tour of the Gallery, which includes 
        masterpieces by Picasso, Mondrian, Pollock, Modigliani, Giacometti, Moore, 
        Burri, Sironi, Carrà, Kilmt, Capogrossi, Fontana, De Chirico, Boccioni, 
        Pomodoro, Manzù, Balla, Van Gogh, Monet, and many others, and will 
        end up with a banquet at the Caffè delle Arti. 
         
        The National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art is located in Viale 
        delle Belle Arti 131 and is easily reachable from the symposium location 
        (see map), even by a very pleasant walk 
        through Villa Borghese. 
         
        The cost of the social dinner, including the tour of the Gallery, is EUR 
        75 (NOT included in the FOCS registration package). Tickets can be purchased 
        on-line (*) with the FOCS registration page (strongly recommended). 
        Extra tickets can also be purchased on-site at the FOCS registration desk,
