Artnet News: ‘We Wanted the Community to Embrace Us’: Magazzino Director Vittorio Calabrese on the Museum’s Place in the Hudson Valley

The Magazzino Italian Art Foundation in Cold Spring, New York, is quickly becoming one of the most frequented new art museums in the Hudson Valley.

Located a stone’s throw away from neighboring art sites like Dia:Beacon and the Storm King Art Center, the state-of-the-art institution features 18,000 square feet of exhibition space and an extensive library. It was founded in the summer of 2017 by husband-and-wife collectors Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu, who were looking to house their personal collection in a public space, and hoping to introduce others to the lesser-known world of contemporary Italian art.
