As always there are the columns dedicated to the exhibitions in Italy and abroad, to photography, to the art market, to investements, to art fairs, to books. 

“The first fifty years of our magazine, as evidenced by 567 issues realesed, coincide with a crucial and exciting time for the artistic research. – explains the director, Michele Bonuomo – It's exactly what we wanted to tell in this special issue, highlighting the changes, the trends and the protagonists that, decade after decade, marked the passage between 20th and 21st century.
