Yes, it is all true. After almost sixty years of activity, fifty of which spent in via Manin/via Turati, Galleria Milano is forced to leave its space.
The site-specific group exhibition Here. Between not-yet and no-more stems from the need to reflect on a landmark for the Milanese art world and more, a place that has seen a prestigious history pass by and where many personalities that revolutionized the artistic language of those years have met. This is a collective moment not a definitive farewell, rather a goodbye with eyes on the future.
The exhibition Here. Between not-yet and no-more, is conceived to honor the space with works by about forty artists who have been invited to dialogue with the Gallery’s space, in the present but also in virtue of the memory of what has been: between not-yet and no-more. It is now, the instant in between, the ever-present moment, precarious and fragile because it is in constant transformation, the starting point from which we can have a special look at the past and at the future to come. The frescoed ceiling, the sound of footsteps on the floorboards, the handles, the Art Nouveau details, the shelves, the exhibition halls, the two workspaces and the many details of the space are revised by the artists’ sharp and watchful view, as well as the living reminder of the past, the memory of Carla and the persistent smell of cigarettes.
