WEM

EMPOWERING ART

 

About

Founded in 2021 WEM is an innovative art gallery born from the passion and love for contemporary art of its founder Marco Bracaglia. WEM’s philosophy is based on the link between art and life and aims to place it back at the center to celebrate its beauty through the pleasure of surrounding oneself with it every day.

Formula WEM

Seguendo tale obiettivo, WEM offre la possibilità di collezionare le opere dei suoi artisti con speciali contratti d’acquisto che si adattano alle esigenze di ogni collezionista.

  • Puoi acquistare l’opera d’arte che desideri attraverso pagamenti dilazionati fino a dieci anni su base mensile a partire da 50 euro al mese.
  • Il trasporto e l’installazione sono compresi nel prezzo e sarà effettuato dal nostro team
    secondo le tue esigenze.
  • Non sono previsti interessi e/o altre spese aggiuntive.
  • Le opere d’arte sono coperte da polizza assicurativa All Risks garantendo una tutela al
    collezionista a 360 gradi.
  • La restituzione può essere effettuata in qualunque momento ed il contratto sarà interrotto
    senza penali

Our space

WEM was born out of the artist residency project started in 2017 by Magistris & Wetzel spa, a factory founded in 1951 and a leader in cold metalworking.

WEM’s exhibition spaces span more than 1,000 square meters balanced between art and industry.

250 sqm is a maxi industrial white cube dedicated to temporary exhibitions and 750 sqm are divided into “WEM rooms” dedicated to the permanent exhibition of works by our artists.

Where we are

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is based on the link between art and life: a work of art must be enjoyed to be alive, to really exist. Believing in the power of art and its social and cultural role, WEM’s core mission is to continue to trigger virtuous circuits to invest in the artists in whom we believe and to create increasingly ambitious exhibitions in museums and international cultural institutions.
