Art galleries Calandra Arte The Calandra Art Gallery was founded in 1999 by Sebastiano Calandra. It was the first art gallery in Cinque Terre and has long been of national importance for the promotion and diffusion of modern and contemporary art. Thanks to its strategic location, it is also a point of reference for collectors throughout Europe and the world: from America to Australia and New Zealand. The gallery promotes a series of personal and collective exhibitions designed to show the work of contemporary and important modern artists. One of the main objectives of the Calandra Art Gallery is to enhance local heritage exhibiting sculptures, paintings and graphic works about Cinque Terre by local and significant artists. To this end the Calandra Art Gallery organizes exhibitions and events in public and private spaces, together with institutions such as museums. It also participates at the most important national and international art fairs.
