Concept:
Agua8 Art Rooms is founded on a two pillar concepts: on the one side, the space will be available to well established galleries to present their artists. On the other side emerging artists will be included to give them the opportunity to gain exposure in southern Switzerland and northern Italy.
Agua8 Art Rooms is not primarily a commercial undertaking seeking to maximize profits, it is rather the promotion of a cultural way of living, enabling socio-cultural exchanges. It is therefore my goal to promote events dedicated to all the one that consider art as the essential link to the esthetic and its consequent emotional implication.
