Founded in Milan in 1987, for over thirty years the Massimo De Carlo gallery has played a fundamental role in introducing Italian artists to international audiences as well as bringing the most interesting voices of global art to Italy, promoting a vital dialogue between artists, institutions, critics, curators and collectors.
Over the years, the artists represented by the gallery have all gained international recognition, have been shown in renowned museums and biennials and their works are widely collected in public and private collections.
After opening a new space in London in 2009 and another one in Hong Kong at the beginning of 2016, in the same year Massimo De Carlo inaugurated a second space in the center of Milan, in Palazzo Belgioioso, in the heart of the city, the gallery’s exhibition venue until 2021.

In 2019, Massimo De Carlo inaugurated its main new Milanese exhibition space at Casa Corbellini-Wassermann, an extraordinary 20th-century building designed by the Italian architect Piero Portaluppi, thus continuing to foster the dialogue between historical architectural sites and the work of the most authoritative voices of contemporary art.
