Galleria Michela Rizzo

Galleria Michela Rizzo Nel 2013 a questo si affianca una seconda sede, il piano terra di un edificio industriale, nella zona degli ex birrifici alla Giudecca.

Il programma della Galleria Michela Rizzo include mostre, partnership con importanti istituzioni italiane e straniere e collaborazioni con artisti e curatori emergenti e affermati. Nel 2004 a Venezia, in un piccolo spazio espositivo, apre la Galleria Michela Rizzo con l’intento di ravvivare la scena culturale relativa all’arte contemporanea, in una città dove si sentiva la necessità di gallerie ch

e non fossero di natura prettamente commerciale. Già all’inizio del 2008 la galleria si sposta in un ambiente più grande e fascinoso, al primo piano di Palazzo Palumbo Fossati, un bellissimo edificio veneziano del ‘500, dove resterà fino al 2014. Spazio che, nell’aprile 2014, diventa la sede definitiva della galleria. Negli anni, la Galleria Michela Rizzo ha portato avanti un’attività espositiva di alto profilo alternando virtuose collaborazioni con importanti artisti internazionali a quelle di giovani emergenti.

“Schermo-Disegno / Verticale-Orizzontale”

The work belongs to the very first series of screens composed of a standard-sized sheet of white paper (70 × 100 cm) with a black edge of approximately 8 cm painted in tempera along the four sides. The title introduces, for the first time in Mauri’s work, the concept of screen. The indication “Vertical / Horizontal”, furthermore, suggests that the painting can be hung in both directions, freeing the work from the mere representation of the cinema screen.

💫 We are pleased to inform you that, on 25th of June, the presentation of the book "NOI NEL MONDO. INDAGINE SULLA PERCEZIONE ESTERA DELL'ARTE CONTEMPORANEA ITALIANA" will be held in Milan with a speech of the artist Francesco Jodice!

In the beautiful spaces of the Monastery of Astino, Fondazione MIA presents Common Places, an exhibition by Francesco Jodice, opened on 5 June and running until 29 November.

The exhibition pays tribute to the work of one of the most original and innovative voices in contemporary Italian art. Through his images, Jodice offers a powerful reflection on the landscape, seen not only as a physical place but also as a political, cultural and human space that tells stories of change, collective memory and evolving identities.

The exhibition brings together years of research focused on Italy, observed as a symbolic territory of our time. It also includes a site-specific intervention from The Room project, created especially for Astino in dialogue with the monastery’s architecture and the pages of L’Eco di Bergamo.

A journey that invites visitors to look at the landscape from a new perspective, between memory, present and future.

On the occasion of the presentation of the 2026 Lifetime Achievement Award at the 67th Bugatti-Segantini Prize to artist Riccardo Guarnieri, the solo exhibition Transits of Light was inaugurated on 6 June 2026 at Villa Vertua in Nova Milanese.

Open until 5 July 2026, the exhibition brings together eighteen works that reflect the development of the artist’s research. The works on display explore the relationship between the light emerging from the painted surface through subtle layers of watercolour, pastel and delicate colour modulations, and the refined dialogue between transparency, colour and spatial perception that has characterised his work for more than fifty years.

The exhibition is organised by the Libera Accademia di Pittura “Vittorio Viviani”, with the support and patronage of the Municipality of Nova Milanese, the Rossi Foundation, the Brera Academy of Fine Arts, the Lombardy Region and the Province of Monza and Brianza.

Barry X Ball
The Shape of Time
Basilica di San Giorgio Maggiore, Venice
Until November 22

Barry X Ball’s Buddha series, presented in the exhibition The Shape of Time, constitutes one of the most explicitly spiritual and intercultural sections of the entire exhibition.

The group includes three stone sculptures depicting Buddha, arranged in the basilica’s sacristy in a cruciform layout that enhances their contemplative and ritual dimension. The works are created through the artist’s characteristic process, which combines 3D scanning, digital manipulation, and the handcrafting of stone and semi-precious materials.

Among them, Mirrored Buddha Herms stands out for bringing into dialogue a fifteenth-century Japanese Buddhist sculpture and Ball’s mirrored reinterpretation in Belgian black marble. The relationship between the original and the replica is not based on imitation but on concept: it becomes a reflection on the duplication of images, perception, and the very status of the sacred object.

This will be followed by a tour of Muntadas’ exhibition, “Exercises on Past and Present Memories”, featuring an engaging discussion between art critic and curator and Filipino artist . Given the themes explored by the artist in the exhibition, and in the run-up to Philippine Independence Day on 12 June, we are particularly grateful to the Italian-Philippine association for helping us to create this valuable opportunity for reflection, discussion and cultural exchange.

We look forward to seeing you from 6 pm!

“Eternal life is not long; it is a timeless instant,” as Fabio Mauri puts it, words that nicely capture that point of intersection between the infinite and the fleeting moment, two themes that run through his entire body of work.
His existence in the world and in time, and the need to understand reality through its meaning, mean that his long journey through art inevitably involves a deep exploration of his own existence, with the aim of grasping its meaning, the ultimate, and therefore primary, expression of truth.
A truth as deeply held as it is malevolent is that which finds him plunged into the most horrific two decades in human history, a trauma for which he pays with repeated stays in mental hospitals, for years. Even though the loss of a sense of reality tears his consciousness to the point of concealment, at the same time, the experience of God, of the absolute, keeps him grounded in that sense of existence where the invisible permeates everything and roots the experience of the world in revealed truth, ultimately bringing us this journey through life, expressed through art.

In the Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, as part of Barry X Ball’s exhibition “THE SHAPE OF TIME” currently on display, the Medardo Rosso Project series is featured, one of the central themes of the exhibition, dedicated to the great Italian sculptor Medardo Rosso. Twelve sculptures that reinterpret the style of the great Italian sculptor through advanced digital technologies. Since 2012, Barry X Ball has undertaken an extensive project to 3D scan Medardo Rosso’s sculptures, which are transformed into new sculptural forms whilst maintaining a direct link to the originals. The works in the series, displayed along the corridor connecting the nave to the sacristy, establish a close dialogue with the architectural space of the basilica and emerge as presences suspended between memory and transformation. It takes the form of a critical and technological reinterpretation of the modern sculptural tradition, in which Medardo Rosso’s legacy is transposed into Barry X ball’s contemporary dimension, which amplifies its ambiguities, dissolutions and perceptual intensities.
