This Saturday in Pietrasanta is collectors night: the 6th edition of Collectors Night


On Saturday, July 10, 2021, Pietrasanta hosts the sixth annual Collectors Night: nine contemporary art galleries open late with exhibitions and events. Here is the full list.

On Saturday, July 10, 2021, Pietrasanta’s Collectos Night returns, now in its sixth edition: nine art galleries, all members ofANGAMC - National Association of Modern and Contemporary Art Galleries, will propose exhibitions dedicated to historicized masters, international authors and young promises, offering a broad overview of the art of the present. Realized under the patronage of the City of Pietrasanta, the sixth edition of Collectors Night takes the form of a journey through the historic center of Pietrasanta, through artworks selected by Accesso Galleria, Barbara Paci Art Gallery, Futura Art Gallery, Deodato Arte Gallery, Giovanni Bonelli & LIS10 Gallery, Poggiali Gallery, Susanna Orlando Gallery, Marcorossi Arte Contemporanea, and Paola Raffo Arte Contemporanea.

“Sixth year of Collectors Night, third under my coordination,” says Claudio Francesconi, president of ANGAMC. "I can only be proud of what has been done in these years that have seen the event grow year after year in terms of its catchment area. If in fact it is true that Collectors Night always maintains its premises of great quality in terms of the selection of proposals, and under the ANGAMC banner this can only be the case, it is also tangible how this event has now entered the collective imagination of the Pietrasanta summer as an expanded cultural phenomenon. It is with great satisfaction that we record the growth in membership for the event, which this year has nine participating galleries. It has been a very complicated year for all of us, with the country on its knees and the economy brought down by the continuing health emergency, but we have held on, no gallery on our circuit has closed its doors, we have reinvented ourselves and found new ways of doing communication and new resources to continue our journey. While thanking the Municipality of Pietrasanta, which once again grants us patronage for our initiative, I would like to emphasize that Collectors Night is unique: there is no other event of this magnitude that places the figure of the art collector at the center of its construction, there is nothing like it in the world, and this is perhaps the key to the success of an event that every year gathers wider and wider acclaim and greater and greater visibility.
