About Fonderia 20.9

Founded in 2015, Fonderia 20.9 is a cultural association based in Verona promoting contemporary photography and visual arts.

Our gallery presents an annual exhibition program showcasing both emerging and established artists, gradually becoming a hub for cultural exchange and artistic innovation for contemporary photographers and visual artists. In addition to showcasing work, we organize and curate residency programs both within our space through the Visiting Artist Program (VAP) and on the field with projects like SÅM. Our commitment to a collaborative and sustainable vision drives us to create connections between diverse communities and institutions, offering services like consultancy, exhibition design and production, as well as fine art and photobook printing. We emphasize the importance of education and interdisciplinarity, offering courses, talks, and workshops that bridge different realities.

Founded by Chiara Bandino, Francesco Biasi, and Emanuele Brutti, Fonderia 20.9 has been recently joined by Rocco Venezia.
