Cultural Centres and Exhibition Halls Italy  Centro d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea de La Spezia | | The Centre was born with the attempt to preserve, expose, increase and promote the civic collections acquired with the "Golfo della Spezia" painting prize between 1949 and 1965 which have been expanded thanks to the generous donations from the Cozzani and Battolini collections. Besides such mission, CAMeC intends to receive, signal and study the expressions of the most relevant contemporary artists with particular focus on the younger generations, of which it will be a careful observer.

Centro di Cultura Contemporanea Strozzina (CCCS) | | The Centre for Contemporary Culture Strozzina (CCCS), part of the Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi in Florence, was created as platform for the different approaches and practices that characterise the production of contemporary art and culture. The basic approach of the Centro di Cultura Contemporanea Strozzina (hereafter CCCS) is to develop a multiyear programme which harnesses both local and international networks. This means not only developing thematic exhibitions to be held during the year but also inviting independent curators and institutions to propose exhibitions, series of videos and films, workshops, performances and lectures to be hosted at the centre on a regular basis.

Isola Art Center | | The Isola Art Center space is an attempt to provide an effective response to planning shortcomings. This project has been developing for five years, with the involvement of groups of artists, neighborhood associations, collectives of architects and urbanists, as new subjects active in the production of the city. As the borderlines between the intellectual sphere, political action and culture become increasingly blurred, an artspace can no longer present itself as a separate situation, outside an urban context stratified between memories, practices and new functions. In this sense the Isola Art Center attempts to insert itself in the "here and now" of the contingencies of social space, inside a multitude of different stories.

Palazzo Marino | | Now the City Council’s headquarters, Palazzo Marino was built in the 16th century for a family of Genoese bankers. It was designed by a leading architect, Galeazzo Alessi; his are the beautiful inner courtyard and the main façade, which - strange as it may seem - is today’s back front.
