Independent Art Space

Base Milano

The new space in the Tortona area of Milan opened at the end of March 2016.

Via Ambrogio Bergognone da Fossano, 34, 20144 Milan, Italy

This is a dynamic and hybrid cultural centre, deeply connected to the city, constantly evolving through the people who engage with it. It serves as a hub for both gathering and performance—a space for dancing, creating noise, and expressing oneself freely. Originally a train factory, it has been thoughtfully revitalised and returned to the community, offering a unique and open space for creativity. Neither a traditional museum nor a conventional theatre, it encompasses much more, blending these roles while also transcending them.

The centre functions as a platform for collective imagination, embracing a wide range of purposes, both in terms of physical space and intellectual exploration. It is grounded in a belief in free, participatory culture and has a remarkable ability to foster the unexpected. Like an ever-evolving entity, it never rests: 365 days of experimentation, voices challenging the status quo, and projects that explore the intersections of art and contemporary creation.
