Get matched →Palazzo Monti is an artist residency programme with an exhibition space and private collection located in the heart of Brescia, Italy. Founded in 2017 by Edoardo Monti, an art collector and curator from Bergamo, Italy, it serves as an incubator for creativity and productivity. The residency is housed in a 13th-century building decorated with neo-classical frescoes from the 18th century.
Palazzo Monti's mission is to become one of the most relevant players for artist residencies programmes, recognised among the international creative scene, with contemporary art as the main focus and design as an additional one. The residency aims to support artists and creatives from all over the world through their artistic journeys, gain confidence in their practice, provide a unique immersive experience, and take part in an inclusive and prestigious creative community. The residency has hosted over 35 shows in just four years since its founding, and their community includes over 150 international artists, alumni, and creatives.
Local Italian and international artists are invited to share their everyday life and experience several artistic practices: painting, photography, sculpture, visual arts, and design. Artists have created paintings, prints, installations, and objects in ceramic, iron, bronze, marble, or wood inspired by the savoir-faire of the Italian territory.
In 2020, Palazzo Monti launched FRESCO, a project in support of young artists with conversations and tips around art and design. International artists, curators and collectors have joined Edoardo on these quick FaceTime chats, which have been viewed over 33,000 times.
