Milan Apartment Gallery The AP•Art•ment Opens 'Under the Gaze'

exhibition · 2026-04-26

In Milan, architect Andrea Villa and Pasqualina Lepore have converted their 1920s pied-à-terre at Via Lodovico Settala 45 into an exhibition space called The AP•Art•ment. The venue blends vintage furnishings, design objects, and contemporary art. Following its debut with 'Inside' during Milan Design Week 2025, the space now presents 'Under the Gaze,' a group show curated by Domenico de Chirico featuring paintings by Miriam Auteri, Nicola Bindoni, and Michele D'Amico. The exhibition explores the dynamics of looking and being looked at, creating a relational tension between viewer and artwork within a domestic setting. The founders envision The AP•Art•ment as a stable platform for emerging artists, offering visibility and research space. Located near Stazione Centrale and Corso Buenos Aires, the apartment also functions as a short-stay rental where all furnishings, decor, and artworks are available for purchase. The show runs through January 31, 2026, by appointment.
