Departements

For over fifty years, Farsettiarte has been the place to go to for Modern Art, in Italy. Its catalogues have been filled with all sorts of 20th century Italian art, as well as with works by the most important international artists. Despite having contributed to putting together many of the most important Italian collections, Farsettiarte is also well known internationally and has remarkably increased its international clientele over the last few years. Modern Art auctions take place twice [..]

Farsettiarte steadily monitors any development in the art market; that’s why its auctions always host a rich selection of works by Italian and international contemporary artists, carefully selected by experts who are unfailingly keen on quality and in keeping with the very latest international trends. Contemporary Art auctions take place twice a year, the last weekend of November and May.

The department was founded in 1991 in the new premises in Viale della Repubblica. Sales took a new direction in the new premises, designed to home and handle paintings as well as furnishings, china, silverware and objets d’art. Since the very first auction, the works on display, selected by specialist experts, have been a success with the public. The House Sale was a real hit. Auctions take place twice a year, in April and November.

The department was also founded in 1991, along with the Ancient Paintings and Furnishings one. The selection is mainly focussed on 19 th century Italian art, where pride of place is given to Macchiaioli and post-Macchiaioli painters, as well as 20 th century Italian and international works and sculptures, which, since Art Deco, have still been influenced by an early-century taste.

The recently established department deals with antique and modern jewelry, watches and silver, offering the opportunity to bid rare and precious objects at competitive prices.

Born recently, the department offers auctions dedicated to selected porcelain, silver, crystal, cutlery, fabrics, and everything that contributes to a refined mise en place.
