The Venetian branch of the well-known Swiss gallery founded in 2005 by Patricia Low opens with a solo exhibition by the American artist Amy Bessone entitled Our Secret Garden, a painted garden inhabited by very colorful female figures, whose intensity and shape refer to various historical-artistic references or architectural, including the city of Venice itself. The strong tones of Bessone's exhibition announce a dense succession of international artists in the heart of the so-called Venetian Museum Mile, the Dorsoduro District. Patricia Low Venice, located in the sixteenth-century Palazzo Contarini Michiel, next to Ca' Rezzonico Museo del Settecento Veneziano and in front of Palazzo Grassi, provides a rich annual program parallel to the sister gallery in Gstaad that pays constant attention to the search for new positions in art Contemporary.
