Société Interludio was founded as cultural and life project by the italo-brazilian curator Stefania Margiacchi (1990) and artist Paul de Flers (1988) in the autumn of 2018 in Turin, in their own flat at number 14 of Piazza Vittorio Veneto. The gallery’s main focus has always been contemporary painting, often inviting artists to think about site-specific works or even transforming the spaces into a studio-residence for guest artists. After three years of working on the territory and researching and experimenting with emerging and mid-career artists, Société Interludio has transitioned from a hybrid form to that of a proper gallery, maintaining a strong curatorial and artistic identity and keeping faith to the principles of dialoguing and sharing with artists and cultural operators, while opening up even more to collaborations with various art-forms and protagonists of the contemporary art scene. Research, dialogue and sharing can be defined the corner stones of Société Interludio. Alongside its main spaces in the city centre, in May 2023 Société Interludio opened a second space – an old early 20th-century sawmill converted into an exhibition space – in Cambiano, a small town in the hinterland of Turin. From 2024 this second location became the gallery main space, maintaining the link with the center of Turin thanks to ad hoc collaborations and site-specific projects. The intention is to continue and indeed to enhance the network of collaborations between various national and international realities, continuing the gallery’s painstaking search for the most interesting emerging artists on the scene as well as mid-career figures.
