Is pleased to announce the opening of "STUDIO MAFFEI MILANO IS PROUD TO SUPPORT ITS LOCAL ARTISTS", combining solo exhibitions from 4 different Italian emerging and mid-career artists into one show. This show highlights a selection of recent and site-specific works, chosen among some of the most talented Italian artists, exhibited during the last two years of the gallery’s activity.
In addition to the exhibits located in the basement of Environment, located at 876 Broadway, we will also be featuring the scenario/arrangement shift in the front window on the ground floor. Each Sunday, for a period of four weeks, the artists will re-arrange the 'room', using Eco-design supplies provided by Environment, with the artists' own personal taste, and setting the artworks within their most common context: at home. The concept is to highlight the incredible and, at times, under-valuated link between Design and Contemporary Art. The aim is to provide to the spectator the idea of the artworks positioned in an environment different than a museum, enriching our knowledge upon ones everyday surrounding and (hopefully) make it better.
The Exhibition will also host a gift shop where artists can sell smaller authentic and unique works dedicated to America, and particularly to New York City. Items like frottage, t-shirt, drawings, books, publishing and video not available on the market, which represent the expression of artists' work on show, and are dedicated to supporting the project with the broader cultural spirit of this era: contamination as a method of investigation.
The artists - especially emerging - need to be supported, in order to accomplish their work. In response to that, STUDIO MAFFEI MILANO will create a mini-market showing those talents in which it firmly believes, and providing assistance in combining alternative communication projects. Our first goal is to build and grow a significant relationship between art and people, with an active and socially conscious market, trying to tilt the balance towards the artistic sensibility and aesthetic flow.
Established in April 2008, STUDIO MAFFEI MILANO is a concept gallery dedicated to the use of Contemporary Art for the development, communication, and realization of alternative exhibition projects and to the investigation of new ideas inspired by the sharing of diverse social experiences between artists, curators, collectors and professionals in the sector. The gallery aims to feature debut-emerging and mid-career artists, both local and foreign, conceived to showcasing works that both reflect and refract the contemporary culture of life. The headquarters are located in Milan, Italy, but rather than adopt a gallery-as-sanctuary mentality, STUDIO MAFFEI MILANO encourages its artists to work freely, altering the space as they see fit, working on site-specific projects around the world. Exhibitions feature a broad range of contemporary art: painting, sculpture, film/video, performance, mixed-media, and conceptual installation.
