Those of you lucky enough to be in Italy this week can’t afford to miss Artissima. As one Italy’s most important art fairs (sorry, Venice Biennale!), Artissima gathers 200 galleries from around the world in Torino for three days dedicated to celebrating the best of emerging artists and collectible contemporary art. And hey, since you’re in Italy already, why not jaunt around to different cities and check out what else is currently on view in the country’s best galleries? Our guide has got you covered, from Florence to Naples.

Grab a stiff espresso, and hop aboard a train to Milan, because this stylish city is packed with shows of every stripe, from painting to sound art to…snail art? First stop, Monica de Cardenas, to see Thomas Struth’s latest show of large-scale photographs documenting three very different subjects: scientific research centers, Disneyland California, and Israel and the West Bank. Next, head to Brand New Gallery to enjoy Ry David Bradley’s dreamy, psychedelic digital paintings. He sources his images from the New York Library archive of rare pictures, and uses a complex technique of heated dyes on suede to achieve a uniquely gorgeous surface, so be sure to see these in person while you can. Once you’ve had your fill, visit celebrated American painter Stanley Whitney’s debut exhibition with Lisson Gallery, featuring his signature, blocky abstraction. Before leaving Milan, don’t forget to stop by Nicolas Party’s whimsically named “Snails’ Chapel”—which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like. A site-specific installation, Party fully transforms one of the rooms of Kaufmann Repetto gallery into a frescoed, early-Renaissance-esque chapel dedicated to the humble snail. It’s a playful, tongue-in-cheek gesture, and a very charming one.

From there, let’s skip around to different destinations: In Venice, there’s the long-running installation of Igor Mitoraj’s classical, poetic sculptural fragments at Gallerie d’Arte Contini. While you’re there, you should also make time for the Guggenheim Venice collection, currently exhibiting the paintings of V.S. Gaitonde. In Florence, Il Ponte hosts Jan Fabre’s first solo exhibition, consisting of a grand narrative film following the journey of a fairytale knight—played by the artist himself, of course. In Naples, Galleria Lia Rumma displays the interdisciplinary work of Gilberto Zorio, including neon signs, a bowl of sulfur, and mechanized sculpture, so be sure and stop by to piece it all together. Lastly, let’s visit Rome for the MAXXI, or the National Museum of Art from the 21st Century. The building itself, designed by Zaha Hadid, is worth the visit alone, and you can currently see an exhibition of photographer and filmmaker Olivio Barbieri on display.

Had enough yet? If that’s a yes, prop up your feet and enjoy a bellini, a negroni, or something else Italian and lovely. It’s been a good trip for art and art lovers all around.
