Save the date: upcoming events
September is always a month of new beginnings, and this year it carries an even more special flavor for us: our autumn season opens with Germinale Art Festival, a project that feels particularly close to our vision and spirit.
The second edition of the festival revolves around the theme of Alimurgia, a term coined in the 18th century to describe the use of wild, edible plants as a resource in times of famine. Today, it becomes a powerful metaphor for resilience, care, and the rediscovery of hidden value in common things: an invitation to slow down, observe, and discern what nourishes from what contaminates – not only in food, but also in cultural and social terms.
The Monferrato region, with its landscapes and villages steeped in history, thus becomes fertile ground for a contemporary reflection: art as a slow nourishment, germinating over time and weaving together community, memory, and future.
Germinale Art Festival: 12 September – 12 October 2025
On September 14 at 4:30 PM, we will inaugurate, together with the Monferrato community, a journey that puts spaces, territories, and artistic practices into dialogue. For this occasion, we have selected two artists who perfectly embody the spirit of research we aim to pursue:
Pedro Pires, with the iron sculpture Border Series 136 3/4, which addresses themes of collective identity and the body as a vessel of memory;
Federico Borroni, with a site-specific installation entitled Selvatica, reflecting on the relationship between space and perception, created specifically for this context.
It will be a moment of direct, simple yet intense encounter, with the presence of the artists and a curious audience. We invite you to join us for the opening or, if you prefer, discover the festival at any time until October 12th.

Distilleria Mazzetti | The Art of Collecting Art – 4 October 4:30 PM
On October 4 at 4:30 PM, in partnership with Germinale Art Festival, we will host a talk dedicated to contemporary art collecting, entitled The Art of Collecting Art.
The event will take place at the historic Distilleria Mazzetti and will feature prominent and influential figures from the contemporary art world. Collecting has never been just about investment: it’s intuition, courage and the ability to discern what isn’t yet obvious.
In an unstable present, Germinale and Trium Art Gallery open a dialogue on how to collect consciously, transforming the act of purchasing into a choice that generates culture and perspective.
Participation is by invitation only and places are limited.
Verona Art Fair | October 10–12, 2025
From October 10 to 12, we will be present at Art Verona, one of the most prestigious Italian fairs dedicated to contemporary art.
At our booth, we will present a dialogue between Ibrahim Ballo and Odinakachi Okoroafor, two of the most compelling African voices on the international scene, alongside two historical masterpieces by Mimmo Rotella and a special project by Federico Borroni, a young Italian talent to watch closely.
