Maria Cristina Carlini Foundation

A new contemporary art centre in Milan

The Maria Cristina Carlini Foundation is a place that recounts, preserves and celebrates the work of the artist, who has been devoted to sculpture for over fifty years.

Located just steps away from her historic studio on Via Savona 97 in Milan, the Foundation houses a selection of her works in both its indoor and outdoor spaces, as well as a repertoire of books, documents, and videos available for consultation. The Foundation aims to foster opportunities for exchange and dialogue on topics related to culture and contemporary art.
