Bridging Art History with Contemporary Practice.
NISO is rooted in dialogue: between generations and visual languages, between the urgency of the new and the persistence of the essential. We support artists who challenge the surface—who think through gesture, color, material, and historical awareness. Our program is guided by three core principles, woven into a curatorial approach that is precise, attentive, and rigorous: (I) supporting artists with distinctive voices; (II) bringing renewed attention to overlooked trajectories; (III) fostering meaningful dialogues between works, languages, and generations.
(I) Discovery: We are committed to emerging artists who work with evolving visual languages and a sharp formal sensibility. We seek voices that, through visual intensity, raise new questions and expand the scope of contemporary artistic practice.
(II) Critical Recovery: We revisit significant yet neglected paths in art history—works that speak to the present and deserve to be re-examined through fresh perspectives. This approach is grounded in a reflective reading of the past, oriented toward transformation.
(III) Intergenerational Dialogues: We connect artists across generations and geographies, activating productive tensions and shared sensibilities. Rather than searching for stylistic similarity, we look for converging concerns—stories that resonate across Time and challenge how we see and understand Art today.
Together, these principles form the foundation of our work and the heart of our activity: a way of thinking through art with curatorial precision, openness, and care. Each exhibition is a visual hypothesis—an active space where past and present unfold in conversation.
