Upsilon Gallery opens new gallery space in Milan.

Upsilon Gallery has opened a new gallery space in Milan at Via Gastone Pisoni 2, in the heart of the city’s famed Quadrilatero district, today, November 18th, 2025.

A major milestone for the gallery, Upsilon Milan’s exhibition space is approximately 200 square meters, and has been designed as a tribute to Milan through the use of materials that have always been central to Milanese architecture. The inaugural exhibition is a solo exhibition from Osvaldo Mariscotti, a leading figure in Upsilon’s artist roster.

Founded by German-Argentine art dealer Marcelo Zimmler in 2016, Upsilon Gallery is an internationally renowned gallery with two existing gallery spaces: its first location was established on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York, and its recently inaugurated London venue is located in Mayfair. Upsilon also has an operations office in Miami. The gallery continues to expand its global footprint, and the opening of its Milan outpost represents a significant step in the gallery’s international growth, further contributing to the city’s burgeoning contemporary art landscape.

The gallery’s inaugural exhibition at Upsilon Milan will be a solo show of works by Osvaldo Mariscotti, a celebrated artist whose decades-long career has left a lasting mark on the contemporary art world. The Milan presentation—an extension of the artist’s solo shows in each of Upsilon Gallery’s New York and London locations during the autumn season—will include four paintings from the artist’s new series, The Valley, which echoes Mariscotti’s early years as a landscape painter, reimagined through his signature geometric and abstract style. These works will be shown alongside his linear and forest works as well.

About

Founded in 2016 by Marcelo Zimmler, Upsilon Gallery champions postwar and contemporary international art, with a focus on underrepresented voices and cross-disciplinary experimentation. The gallery supports a broad spectrum of artistic practices across physical and digital platforms, combining exhibitions, publications, research, and technology. Upsilon currently operates two spaces in New York: its flagship gallery at 23 East 67th Street, which hosts 6–8 exhibitions per year, and a private appointment-only space at 146 West 57th Street dedicated to its editorial program. Additional locations include a gallery in London’s Mayfair district and an office in Miami. The Milan gallery marks Upsilon’s fifth global location and its first in Continental Europe.

Painter, printmaker, and sculptor Osvaldo Mariscotti (b. 1960) is known internationally for his expressive visual language and ongoing exploration of the interaction between form and colour. A key figure in contemporary art, his work draws on the minimalist geometry of Suprematism, emphasising man-made forms over natural ones. Mariscotti’s art belongs to important public and private collections, including the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna in Rome, the U.S. Department of State in Washington D.C., the UBS Art Collection, the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts (Maryland), and the Asheville Art Museum.
