Fondazione Rossini

The Rossini Foundation in Briosco is a sculpture park featuring works of art from the second half of the XX century, created by the collector and entrepreneur Alberto Rossini. This peculiar exhibition was set up outdoors, on the hills of Brianza.
Every single work of art goes hand in hand with the surrounding natural landscape and the very vision of Alberto Rossini, who wanted to evocatively blend those two elements together.
There are some works of artists like Rambelli, Minguzzi, Negri, Milani, Mirko, as well as Pomodoro, Melotti, and Turcato; the collection then features masterpieces by Cascella, Consagra, and César, without forgetting younger artists, often tasked with some new creations by Alberto himself, as in the case of Stähler, Dietman, and Ievolella.
The exhibition pavilion was designed by the American architect James Wines, founder of the “Site” group, and offers every single artwork a comprehensive and most coherent way to blend and become part of the surrounding environment.
The Rossini Foundation also aims to become a cultural “center of gravity” in the area, stimulating interest in contemporary art (sculpture in particular) and serving as a gathering place to promote cultural development and aggregation.
