Established in Monza in 1939, Montrasio Arte has long been committed to curating exhibitions that not only showcase the work of both historic and contemporary artists but also offer critical insights and fresh perspectives on their often overlooked artistic journeys.
By fostering dynamic dialogues across different generations, the gallery continually seeks to challenge conventional narratives and spark new artistic discourse. Spanning three gallery spaces located in Monza, Milan, and Piacenza, the gallery represents a distinguished roster of artists, including Alberto Burri, Lucio Fontana, Fausto Melotti, Leoncillo, Piero Manzoni, Emilio Scanavino, Tancredi Parmeggiani,

Leonardo Cremonini, Antonio Recalcati, Bepi Romagnoni, and Giuseppe Zigaina.
In the 1990s, the gallery expanded its horizons to include international artists such as Joseph Beuys, Salvatore Scarpitta, Christo & Jeanne-Claude, Dennis Oppenheim, and Gordon Matta-Clark, while also nurturing emerging talents within the contemporary art scene. Montrasio Arte took a pioneering step in 2007 by establishing the Harlem Studio Fellowship, an artist residency program based in New York City. The gallery’s collaboration with prominent national and international museums, institutions, as well as artists’ heirs and estates, is complemented by its robust work as a publishing house under

Montrasio Arte Edizioni. With a catalog boasting over one hundred titles, this facet of the gallery’s activities underscores its commitment to disseminating scholarly and artistic insights to a broader audience.
