Mostrami wants to take you on a tour of exploration of the contemporary art galleries in Lombardy and in Italy dedicated to emerging artists and we do it through the characters that are the heart of this network.
We meet Salvatore Marsiglione, restorer and researcher, director of the gallery MAG in Como since 2009.
After a life dedicated to “Art”, as he calls it, he decided to make his dream come true and to open a contemporary art gallery in the center of Como: Salvatore is looking for new artists having the “X factor” but the “techne” is a requirement which cannot be forgotten.
