Villa Lontana is a non-profit project space dedicated to exploring the intersections of ancient and contemporary practices in visual arts and sound. Initiated in 2018 from the archaeological collection of the Santarelli Foundation, the project develops a layered archaeology encompassing exhibitions, publications, screenings, artist editions, and sound projects through its own label Villa Lontana Records. The project is run by Vittoria Bonifati and was founded in 2018 in collaboration with Jo Melvin.
