Pinacoteca New York & IF Lifestyle Management Inaugurate: The Contemporary Grand Tour
It’s a whirlwind tour across three cities in eight days. Guided by two connoisseurs and insider access to Italy’s Biennial celebration, this is the art tour package of the season. Pinacoteca New York has partnered with IF Lifestyle Management to provide this exclusive program for art lovers and collectors to enjoy some of the finest exhibits in Italy.
Known as the Contemporary Grand Tour, Pinacoteca has pushed the limit in honor of the 53rd Venice Biennale. Focusing on contemporary art in Italy, this tour highlights the three Italian capitals where the genre is flourishing: Milan, Turin and Venice. From June 1-8, guests on the tour are treated to an expansive survey of current developments in art production, curatorial practices and collecting.
The Contemporary Grand Tour, as with all programs run by Pinacoteca, takes you beyond the velvet rope into the exclusive world of private studios, galleries, collections and foundations highlighted by personal introductions to artists, dealers, curators and gallery directors. True fans of contemporary art will not want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have such an intimate gathering.
Pinacoteca’s Anna Di Stasi and IF Lifestyle Management’s Filippo Cosmelli are both art historians with local expertise and will lead the small tour through hidden treasures in Italy’s art world. Guests will also participate ina variety of private events including a conference on the history and significance of the Venice Biennial. Highlights of the tour include personally curated visits to the Castello di Rivoli in Turin, the Fondazione Prada in Milan and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice.
The Contemporary Grand Tour will sleep at opulent luxury hotels throughout the tour and enjoy gourmet dining at an exquisite selection of restaurants to complement the authenticity of the rich cultural experience.
