Miart x Fuorisalone: Strangers in Milan
"Art and design have always had many points of contact, I personally do not believe much in labels and divisions, so for me it is quite natural that these two worlds contaminate each other," says Nicola Ricciardi, Artistic Director of miart.
'Strangers Everywhere', reads the title of the next Art Biennale in Venice, which opens right at the same time as Milan Design Week ('April is the cruellest month', T.S. Eliot argued with foresight). In Milan, too, more and more international artists and collectors are putting down roots. And gallery owners are no exception: in the last four years alone, at least half a dozen foreign galleries have opened their own offices in the city.
Below is a selection of five galleries selected for this itinerary.
