Galleria Rossella Colombari, based in Milan, is a prestigious international design gallery with over 40 years of experience in promoting Italian twentieth-century design. Rossella Colombari, who comes from a dynasty of antique dealers in Turin, brings her extensive experience and technical capabilities to her role as a Technical Legal Expert for the Court of Milan and as a member of CNE Paris. The gallery has played a significant role in elevating the works of architect Carlo Mollino, who was once unknown, to international prominence through exhibitions and auctions. For over 35 years, Galleria Colombari has been dedicated to supporting twentieth-century Italian design, focusing on masterpieces by renowned artists such as Gio Ponti, Osvaldo Borsani, Ico Parisi, Franco Albini, Fontana Arte, Joe Colombo, Ettore Sottsass, and Alessandro Mendini. The gallery actively participates in leading international fairs, including Salon NY, Design Basel, Design Miami, PAD Paris, and PAD London. Each exhibition stand is designed as a cultural mediation, aimed at presenting high-quality pieces to collectors and the public while re-contextualizing art objects within a contemporary setting. As an integral part of international circuits, Galleria Rossella Colombari collaborates with several international museums, including the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Musèe d'Orsay, which have acquired pieces by Carlo Mollino and Carlo Bugatti from the gallery. The gallery's commitment to showcasing Italian twentieth-century design and its collaboration with renowned institutions make it a must-visit destination for furniture enthusiasts and collectors alike.
