1977 is the year this love affair with art began – from the eternal city of Rome to the futuristic Dubai.
THE STORY
Once upon a time, in the heart of Rome, a visionary art collector had a dream.
He imagined a place where art could flourish—captivating the minds of collectors, artists, and enthusiasts. Guided by a deep passion, he curated a remarkable collection that celebrated the richness and diversity of artistic expression. From striking paintings to timeless sculptures by Italian and European masters from the 16th to the 20th century, each work was selected to stir emotion and spark imagination. In 1977, this vision took form with the founding of Sconci Gallery. Over time, the gallery became a cultural destination—renowned for fostering meaningful dialogue between artists and art lovers, and for building a vibrant, engaged community.
The vision continued to evolve, guided by a new generation of the founding Sconci family.
Raised within the world of art, the next successor brought a fresh, international perspective to the gallery’s future, identifying Dubai as the ideal place for expansion—drawn by its cultural energy and global outlook. In 2014, this vision took shape with the opening of a first branch in Dubai Design District, focused on modern and contemporary masters as well as emerging talents. It quickly became a vibrant hub for collectors and creatives across the region. In 2018, the gallery expanded further with a second space in the Gate Village at Dubai International Financial Centre—known as the ‘Wall Street of Dubai’. Surrounded by art, finance, and luxury, the venue showcases bold contemporary and pop works alongside masterpieces from modern art history, reinforcing the gallery’s standing in the Middle Eastern art scene.
Today, with nearly five decades of experience, Sconci Gallery stands as a premier destination for art in the Middle East and beyond.
It remains committed to innovation, curating exhibitions that reflect the evolving landscape of the global art world. A sanctuary for creativity and a platform for dialogue, the gallery continues to inspire collectors, support emerging voices, and celebrate the power of artistic expression. With passion, dedication, and professionalism, the Sconci Gallery team carries forward a legacy—building a community that values authenticity, vision, and excellence in art.
