Barbati Gallery was founded in 2022 by Michele Barbati, a Venetian native with a background deeply rooted in the arts. After seven years of experience at David Kordansky Gallery in Los Angeles, Barbati returned to his home city, bringing with him an international perspective and a solid understanding of the contemporary art world.

Situated in the unique context of Venice, Barbati Gallery fosters dialogue between established and emerging artists through a year-round program of exhibitions and projects. The gallery promotes a diversity of artistic languages and serves as a meeting point between global perspectives and Venice’s cultural tradition.

Embracing the city’s historical legacy while looking toward the future, Barbati Gallery contributes to the ongoing narrative of contemporary art in Venice, supporting research, experimentation, and the exchange of voices across the international art scene.
