Massimo De Carlo is pleased to announce the opening of the new headquarters in Milan, situated in Viale Lombardia 17, the building known as Casa Corbellini-Wasserman, which was built in the early 1930s (1934-1936) by the renowned Italian architect Piero Portaluppi (19 March 1888 – 6 July 1967).
After undergoing a philological restoration curated by the architects Studio Binocle with the collaboration of Antonio Citterio and achieved with the supervision of the Superintendent bureau for Architectural and Urban Landscaping in Milan, this historical landmark - that was first a family home and then hosted the offices of a bank, and has been empty since 2001 - will be open to the public under the gallery’s ownership for the first time in its history.
On Friday the 22nd and Saturday the 23rd of February 2019 the gallery will open its doors to the city of Milan, allowing the public to explore the building that was once a domestic space and is characterised by a careful use of precious materials – such as different types of marbles for both the interior and exterior – and is one of the finest examples of Milanese rationalist architecture.

Today – over half a century later – artists are once again seizing on minimalistic principles including reuse, organisation and reduction. On the eve of a new era, these artists offer us tools for structuring our lives around the concept of less. This exhibition demonstrates how artists are returning to the essence of things: a new start and a clean slate.

Enigmatic and eclectic, are the works with which Paola Pivi has inaugurated her new personal exhibition Art with a view, in the extraordinary art deco setting of The Bass, Miami Beach's contemporary art museum. With the view towards the ocean, Pivi presented a body of works, some of which were presented to the public for the first time, in which the common thread runs through kitschy and playful visual stratifications.

Vanilla Isis takes an irreverent look at the real and pretend extremisms manifest in contexts as disparate as terrorist groups and youth subcultures. Based on an analysis of the communicative strategies deployed by the Islamic State, whose internet-savvy appropriation of everything from computer games to Hollywood movie posters attracts vulnerable youths in the West, the show looks at how aesthetic trends migrate and are transformed or exploited to strange, unsettling effect.

In the studio of Chicago-based painter McArthur Binion, a handwritten note has been pinned to the wall for a decade that reads “Binion/Saarinen.” The artist’s initial concept was to create a painting inspired by architect Eliel Saarinen and his design of Cranbrook’s historic campus, where Binion received his MFA in Painting in 1973 and received the Distinguished Alumni Award in 2017. This early spark of inspiration will come to fruition at Cranbrook Art Museum and expanded through the creation of seven new works alongside a selection of Saarinen objects curated by the artist.
