Art Basel Hong Kong took centre stage in Asia, featuring the Sanlorenzo Collectors Lounge. The renowned art fair returned to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from March 26 to 30, 2024. It welcomed over 200 leading international galleries—a notable increase from the previous year, representing 40 countries and territories. These galleries connected continents, bridging cultures, aesthetics, and discourse.

Sanlorenzo Lounge presents Casa Sanlorenzo

Sanlorenzo unveiled Casa Sanlorenzo at its Collectors Lounge, inviting visitors to experience the forthcoming Sanlorenzo cultural institution, through an immersive creative video produced by Studio Lissoni.

The future Sanlorenzo Arts headquarters

Casa Sanlorenzo, set to open its doors in Venice this year, will become the official headquarters of  Sanlorenzo Arts. The cultural institution will be aligned with Sanlorenzo’s commitment to culture, communities, sustainability, and of course, art.

As a founding member of the Fondazione Venezia Capitale Mondiale della Sostenibilità (Venice Sustainability Foundation), Casa Sanlorenzo will also help shape Venice’s future. It will also actively contribute to the city’s development through cultural activities, education, and community involvement.

Terzo Paradiso: A universal symphony

As the Biennale Vernissage of Art in Venice unfolded, Sanlorenzo Arts unveiled its pièce de résistance—the Terzo Paradiso by Michelangelo Pistoletto. This universal project embraces humanity’s commitment to epochal challenges. A union of opposites, a synthesis of dynamic balance—it resonates across borders, inviting us to reimagine our world.

Sanlorenzo has a long-standing tradition of supporting creativity and contemporary art. This unique approach has led the company to bond with the world of design and art over the years, collaborating with important galleries and cultural institutions. Sanlorenzo Arts has been an active and interactive platform for projects focused on urgent issues of the contemporary world, since 2021. It addresses these issues through extensive conversations with renowned artists, designers, and thinkers of our era.
