The Portopiccolo Art Gallery represents the “confirmation and development” of the contemporary art proposals created in recent years. Spread over different settings in the Borgo, the installations were designed and built on the comparison of styles, on the presence and interaction with the authors, on the collaboration with other galleries on the national scene, on the enhancement of the cultural resources of the area.

Active since 2015, it has seen, between solo and group exhibitions, the passage of a hundred authors, from the unattainable Francis Bacon to the presence of established painters and the promotion of new talents. It is a cultural space that wants to be an accessible meeting and cultural enrichment… in the style of the Borgo, also through the collaboration with CASA C.A.V.E. for new artistic proposals related to international contemporary art.
The artistic project also develops on “living the Borgo”: the interior design choices of the rental apartments are enriched by the presence of original works of art or furnishing paintings created ad hoc by QBX DESIGN, a company that has the art design as its mission and which has chosen Portopiccolo for its first showroom. The presence of apartments of different types only stimulates and enhances the choices among the works of the more than seventy artists who, in recent years, have trod the stage of the Gallery.
The Gallery was born to also be a point of reference for residents and guests of the Borgo, a clubhouse where they can meet to seek out and find novelties and suggestions, not only on the occasion of the classic vernissages. Having a “living room” in which to entertain and develop relationships even outside the art world, through the reinterpretation of the exhibition spaces in a living room key with the proposal of events in which art, scientific research, innovation, commerce, finance intersect and they get contaminated.
An atelier for photography has been created inside the Art Gallery… an idea which, on the wave of the curiosity of the visitors, has now given life to an “art backstage” where one can rummage in search of evidence of past exhibitions or suggestions of new artists to propose.
