Atelier Pellini

The Atelier Pellini, a sculpture laboratory since 1903, is now available for events, exhibitions and shootings. The idea is to maintain the original identity of the location with the possibility to host cultural events particularly directed to people interested in art, photography, cinema, fashion and performance. Atelier Pellini is an art location in Milan in via privata Siracusa 6 ( Crocetta/ Porta Romana areas). The sculpture studio was built by Eugenio Pellini at the beginning of the last century. In this laboratory Eros Pellini, Eugenio ’s son, learnt from his father the basics of this artistic activity, until he succeeded him in 1934. Subsequently, the rooms of the atelier were used not only by Eugenio as a laboratory and a place to exhibit his art but also as a headquarter for Eros wife Rosa Cerri screenplay activities. With Eros death in 1993 the Atelier’s artistic activities came to an end. Eros daughter Matelda was however able to keep the laboratory intact, giving it a museum-like charm that still today enchants the place. Maintaining its true originality and artistic look the atelier is therefore (probably the only) real portrayal of a 1900 artistic laboratory in Milan. The ideology of the space is grounded on the possibility of coupling the beauty of authenticity and antiquity with the innovation of the present day. Tradition merges with modern artistic experiments. The intent is to use the uniqueness of the location in order to create harmony between artworks from the last century and contemporary ones.
