now on view

20 MAY – 12 SEP

BABS Art Gallery is pleased to invite you to the opening of the exhibition dedicated to the jewelry, artworks, and sculptures of artist Sophia Vari, which will be held on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, starting at 6:00 PM at our gallery in Via Maurizio Gonzaga 2, Milan.

For the first time in Milan, a unique exhibition brings together artworks and jewelry in a tribute to Sophia Vari, one of the most refined artists on the international scene. The exhibition, on view until September 12, 2025, traces the evolution of her artistic language through wearable sculptures crafted from noble materials such as gold, silver, marble, and fine woods; intense and vibrant watercolors revealing a deep pictorial sensitivity; and patinated bronze sculptures in which strength and harmony merge in a striking balance.

We are pleased to announce our collaboration with La Crescentina – Laboratory for Art, which will inaugurate the new exhibition season with the show:

ART TO LIVE / NATURE TO WEAR – Stories of Artworks and Artist’s Jewels

curated by Marzia Capannolo and Paola Stroppiana.

La Crescentina, Strada Crescentina 2, Fubine Monferrato (AL), Italy.

This evocative journey weaves together art and nature, sculpture and ornament, vision and material. On display are the works of eleven historical and contemporary artists who have extended their artistic exploration into the realm of wearable art: unique pieces to wear, capable of telling stories, evoking emotions, and delving into profound themes through original materials, forms, and techniques.

Through painting, installation, sculpture, and design, the exhibition celebrates the beauty of Nature as a source of inspiration and the “genius loci” of a living space in dialogue with the artworks.

PAST

13 SEPTEMBER – 4 OCTOBER

SEI ANNI COME EDITORE DI GIOIELLI D’ARTISTA

In an exclusive location we have chosen specifically for the exhibition, located at Via Carducci 25, BABS Art Gallery will offer the public a journey through the artworks and jewelry created by contemporary artists whom the gallery has followed and supported during its first six years of activity.

7 NOVEMBER – 20 DECEMBER 

BABS Art Gallery in collaboration with Brun Fine Art and Unlock decoding art is delighted to present the exhibition “VANITAS”. The project aims to destabilize the traditional perception of Vanitas, demonstrating how art and beauty can find new forms of immortality in a contemporary interpretation. In this exhibition, the concept of Vanitas is reinterpreted through the juxtaposition of sculptural works, representing the ideal of immortal beauty, with artist’s jewellery, a modern and individual manifestation of our time. A dialogue that offers the public a unique experience, inviting them to reflect on the mutability of aesthetic canons and personal identity.
