10. Ten years of Artrust

The exhibition celebrating the 10th anniversary of the art gallery.

Precisely ten years after the inaugural exhibition in our Melano venue in 2013 – ‘Gen Paul. Retrospective of an Expressionist from Montmartre’, – Artrust celebrates this special anniversary with a new show retracing the last decade of the art gallery’s life through the works of the artists who, during this time, have been protagonists of the many exhibitions held in Melano and beyond. It is a way of commemorating its own history, the evolution accomplished over these years, but above all it is a tribute to the artists, visitors, customers and all the people with whom Artrust has shared this journey.

“This exhibition is certainly a way of celebrating our history, but it is also a dutiful homage to all those who have shared this road with us; first and foremost to ‘our’ artists, This is why each of them will have their own space in the extensive retrospective.To them, and to all those with whom we have collaborated with over the years, we extend our heartfelt thanks.”

The celebratory display will feature a work by each artist exhibited by Artrust from 2013 to the present. So we will find the progenitor Gen Paul and following Mario Comensoli, Carl Walter Liner, François Gall, the couple Niki de Saint Phalle and Jean Tinguely, Yvonne Canu, Marianne Werefkin, Italo Valenti. And then Vasarely, Agam, Miró, Léger and the other protagonists of the “51 steps” series, as well as some representatives of group exhibitions such as 2017’s “Garden” and 2019’s “Into the Pink.” Coming all the way down to Street Art – and the ever-present Banksy – who, with no less than two exhibitions and numerous collaborations and events, has marked Artrust’s activity decisively since 2017.
