HYPERCUBE

Galleries

HYPERCUBE was born out of the urge to imagine alternative dimensions. The hypercube is a geometric figure similar to the cube but immersed in a space of four or more dimensions: although it can be conceptualized and described mathematically, it cannot be imagined by the human mind since it can only think of a three-dimensional reality. Loosely related to the hypercube is the concept of hyperobject developed by contemporary philosopher Timothy Morton. Hyperobjects cannot be fully understood by the human mind because their time and space exceed human time and space, e.g., global warming, race, class, extinction or a certain language.

RIBOT

Galleries

RIBOT gallery was born in April 2015 from an idea of Monica Bottani, with the aim of enriching, through exhibitions of international and emerging artists, the contemporary art scene in Milan.

In the area of contemporary languages ranging from painting to sculpture, from installations to photography to new media, the exhibitions hosted in the gallery are mainly solo shows of foreign artists presenting their works in Italy for the first time.

Each exhibition also features a special project, often a limited edition/multiple, that the artist creates specifically for the Milan exhibition. The intent is to create an opportunity for dialogue between artist and gallery owner, aimed at overcoming the concept of "content" and "container," of artwork and exhibition space, as an end in itself.

The gallery environment at 23 Enrico Nöe Street is a two-story location that the artists are asked to redefine from show to show.

Opening hours:

Tuesday - Saturday, 3-7:30 p.m. or by appointment

Secci

Galleries

Founded in Florence in 2013, Secci Gallery has gained an international reputation by pursuing a curatorial-driven exhibition program. Located in the historic 15th-century Palazzo Ricasoli building, the Florentine space has always been an incubator for artistic creativity. The gallery's rigorous curatorial approach has fostered international collaborations and partnerships by engaging critics and curators. In 2021, the gallery opened its doors to the postwar avant-garde through an extensive retrospective dedicated to Titina Maselli. Currently, the gallery presents and develops a multidisciplinary program and a cultivated combination of modern and contemporary art that allows it to coexist, following the cross-cutting nature of art itself. In the same year, Secci opened a second location in the heart of Milan where larger exhibitions are hosted, with a focus on more ambitious and site-specific projects. The expansion inspired the launch of NOVO, a new Milan program dedicated to contemporary experimentation through the eye of a single curator.

Tempesta Art Gallery aims to be a place to illustrate dialogue with contemporary artists, both Italian and international, and with the city of Milan itself. By presenting exhibition programming with a variety of artists who address issues of great social and environmental relevance, the gallery aims to stimulate critical reflection on the dynamics that affect our society and our planet.

The Flat - Massimo Carasi

Galleries

Founded in 2002, The Flat - Massimo Carasi is a contemporary art gallery located since 2008 in a 250-square-meter former industrial space in Porta Venezia, Milan. The gallery promotes projects with both emerging and established international artists. During the past 10 years of activity The Flat has favored research using innovative technologies, which employ non-traditional materials. The current trend in our programming invests new forms of language that comment on the world of the present in its broadest meanings, interpreting the prodromes of the imminent future. This attitude often departs from the way we understand media such as painting, sculpture or any other form of language that does not contain innovative potential.

Galleries

Viasaterna was founded in 2015 on the initiative of Irene Crocco, founder in 2011 of the Da vicino project, for which she exhibits the works of numerous Italian artists in her Milan apartment.
The gallery's name pays homage to Via Saterna, an imaginary street described by Dino Buzzati among the plates of "Poema a Fumetti," (1969, Arnoldo Mondadori). A world in which dream and reality mingle in a web of people, destinies, lives and imagination. Irene Crocco was inspired by this magical and mysterious place, giving life to a gallery that, through art, could become a living meeting place for people and ideas. Starting with an interest in photography, today Viasaterna explores every other form of contemporary art.
