A new museum in Treviso. Robegan House becomes Pole of Contemporary and Applied Art.


A new museum is born in Treviso: Casa Robegan becomes the Pole of Contemporary and Applied Art. Permanent dialogue between art and the business world.

In Treviso, Casa Robegan becomes a Contemporary and Applied Art Pole, thanks to the collaboration between the City of Treviso, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice and TRA Treviso Ricerca Arte. It will be an experimental museum laboratory, a space dedicated to research and permanent dialogue between contemporary art and business.

“We strongly believe in synergies, and this agreement with Ca’ Foscari and Treviso Ricerca Arte represents another important step in the revitalization of Treviso’s museum hubs, with structured, concrete programs devoted to quality, going to enhance all facets of art and among them also craftsmanship, among the excellences of our territory,” said the mayor of Treviso, Mario Conte.

"Casa Robegan will not only be a venue for exhibitions,“ added Treviso Municipal Councillor for Cultural Heritage and Tourism Lavinia Colonna Preti, ”but an open yard dedicated to contemporary and applied arts, managed through an innovative formula of public-private co-investments. A laboratory that invites all the city’s cultural and business forces to come together and bring their contribution, to make Treviso the capital of the circular research-art-business chain, an identity combination for our territory that has in its DNA a long tradition of manufacturing and artistic craftsmanship, which today needs to be updated to engage in a new dialogue with the languages of art."

Originally created as a museum of applied arts, Casa Robegan will be open for exhibitions, training and meetings and will favor dialogue with the local manufacturing world. A laboratory where artists apply their gaze and languages to the economy.

The president of TRA Treviso Ricerca Arte, Roberto Cortellazzo Wiel, said, “TRA has demonstrated over the past decade that it has a well-defined mission: to be a bridge between the business world, contemporary art and the general public. It is now ready to transfer its experience to a contemporary art hub by concretizing and implementing the public-private partnership management model that has borne excellent fruit in Europe, collaborating with Ca’ Foscari University of Venice and interacting with other national and international entities.”

Casa Robegan’s program intends to materialize in a wide range of exhibition, production, workshop and in-depth initiatives, which it intends to complement with moments of study, training and education, open and free to citizens and schools.
