Antonio Dalle Nogare Foundation

A place where art, architecture and innovation meet to bring the public closer to contemporary art

The Antonio Dalle Nogare Foundation, inaugurated in 2018 in Bolzano, is a reference point for contemporary art. The building that houses it, the work of architects Walter Angonese and Andrea Marastoni, combines museum and domestic atmospheres to create an environment that is not only evocative but also welcoming. The use of local materials such as porphyry gives the building, nestled among the vineyards north of the city of Bolzano, a unique character connected to the territory.

The Foundation promotes contemporary art in all its forms, through exhibitions, educational projects, and cultural initiatives. The heart of the Foundation is the private collection of Antonio Dalle Nogare, an entrepreneur and art enthusiast, who over the years has collected significant works by conceptual and minimalist artists of the second half of the 20th century, including Carl Andre, Robert Barry, Dan Graham, On Kawara, Martin Kippenberger, Joseph Kosuth, Richard Long, Piero Manzoni, Olivier Mosset, Blinky Palermo, and James Turrell, as well as protagonists of Arte Povera such as Giovanni Anselmo, Luciano Fabro, Jannis Kounellis, and Giuseppe Penone.

The collection, curated by Eva Brioschi, provides an in-depth look at a crucial period in contemporary art, characterized by strong experimentation and a deep investigation of artistic languages. The exhibited works range across different forms of expression, from painting to sculpture, from installation to performance, for an engaging and stimulating experience.

In addition to the permanent collection, the Foundation organizes temporary exhibitions dedicated to emerging and established contemporary artists, with a constantly updated look at the latest art trends. The Foundation's educational program is aimed at a wide and diverse audience, with particular attention to the younger generations. Through workshops, meetings, guided tours, and other initiatives, the Foundation aims to bring the public closer to contemporary art, stimulating curiosity and dialogue.

The Antonio Dalle Nogare Foundation is a lively and dynamic place where art intertwines with architecture, culture, and society. A place where the past and present meet, offering food for thought and stimuli for the future.
