Colli

COLLI independent art gallery is a space for contemporary art in Rome, dedicated to printed matter works, editions and multiples. Hosting project-room with artists/editor and cooperative operations with other spaces, editorial projects and labels. The structure is divided into three main areas: the art space that hosts the exhibition programs of the artists, the publishing platform (practical library), a collaborative tool for publishing and co-editing unrealised and research projects with other realities of the productive landscape; and the bookstore, direct sale shop and bibliographical study for specialized consulting addressed to private collections, museums and archives in the field of rare and artist’s contemporary publishing. The space of the store has been designed with the practical library system, platform that is configured as a network of independent distribution. The works proposed and the productions of the project-room deal with mixed media installation, multiplied art of different formats, rare and artist's off-media publishing, work-book, poster art, network art, social photography, editions and multiples in special and limited edition. The orientation of the gallery is linked to the concept of independence with the intention of focus on the art market close to new collettings and an accessible dimension of the art work; a social inclination of the space, shifted more on the cultural and transissive value than the exclusive commercial system. The aim is to build an ipergallery network of projects that conveys each specificity of the consortium and construct an autonomous and remunerative exchange of the artistic work, understood as a "browsable or navigable" cultural common good.
