Cortesi Gallery
European and Post-War Art
Cortesi Gallery was founded in 2013 by Cortesi family specialising in European artistic movements from the ‘60s to the present day producing relevant displays collaborating with specialists as external curators, artists’ archives and estates. Most of the shows organised by Cortesi Gallery are followed by catalogues and publications made by Skira Editore and Mousse Publishing. The gallery’s expertise with major presentations were featuring the ZERO Group, New Tendencies, Kinetic, Conceptual and Minimal Art, opening the boundaries to contemporary artists. The first gallery opened in Lugano in 2013 with an exhibition dedicated to Italian Art ‘60s–‘90s. In May 2015, Cortesi Gallery opened a second space in London, Mayfair, with a group show dedicated to the ZERO Group. Two years later, Cortesi Gallery launched its third space in Milan with an exhibition dedicated to Italian Transavanguardia artist: Nicola De Maria.
