Biografia
ARTE CONTEMPORANEA runs presently a new space in Brussels (Rue des Chevaliers 22 – 1050 Ixelles), with the aim of pushing ahead the gallery’s basic mission: to promote young artists, either established or not, under the lead of renowned and research-oriented curators; to foster the international exchange and cross-fertilization of ideas; to develop cooperation and mutual support with Italian public and private institutions within the EU context; to create a continuous supply of information and initiatives devoted to widen the audience of contemporary visual research; to provide assistance and training to artists and curators through residential stages at its venue.
