From Turin’s Textile Roots to Seoul’s Spotlight, Mazzoleni Threads New Art Worlds

A family’s passion for Italian art quietly bloomed in Turin’s Palazzo Panizza, but the Mazzoleni gallery’s story is anything but provincial. What began as Giovanni and Anna Pia Mazzoleni’s private collection in the 1950s grew into a regional powerhouse for postwar Italian art. When their sons, Luigi and Davide, stepped in, the gallery shifted gears—expanding from its historic home to London and beyond, all while keeping Turin’s artistic pulse alive. Rather than chasing quantity, the brothers focus on nurturing a select group of contemporary artists, supporting their creative leaps and international ambitions. Their approach is less about blockbuster rosters and more about deep, collaborative relationships. As the global art scene pivots toward Asia, Mazzoleni adapts, forging ties with Korean galleries and presenting Italian artists at major fairs in Seoul and Dubai. In a world where art markets are constantly shifting, Mazzoleni’s journey shows that a gallery’s roots can anchor bold new growth—wherever the next creative frontier may lie. #ItalianArt #ContemporaryArt #ArtMarket
