Milano Art Week 2025: 100+ Events Across the City

The ninth edition of Milano Art Week runs from April 1 to 6, 2025, transforming Milan into a platform for artistic expression and critical reflection. Over 100 events span photography, performance, street art, sculpture, and design. Highlights include Nico Vascellari's 'Pastorale' at Palazzo Reale (curated by Sergio Risaliti, opening April 1), inspired by the Sala delle Cariatidi's history from its 1943 bombing to the 1953 display of Picasso's Guernica. Shirin Neshat's first major Italian retrospective at PAC features nearly 200 photographs and a dozen video installations, alongside a solo show by Celine Croze. On April 4, Koyo Kouoh, curator of the 61st Venice Biennale, delivers a lecture organized by MAC – Milano Art Community.
