SINCE 1998 AMEDEO PORRO FINE ARTS HAS EXTENDED ITS INTEREST IN THE FIFTIES AND SIXTIES ITALIAN ART, WITH A MAJOR FOCUS ON THE WORK BY LUCIO FONTANA, ABOUT WHOM THE GALLERY HAS PUBLISHED A WIDE RANGE OF CATALOGUES. ALBERTO BURRI, PIERO MANZONI, ENRICO CASTELLANI, PIERO DORAZIO, GIUSEPPE CAPOGROSSI, MICHELANGELO PISTOLETTO, AND ALIGHIERO BOETTI, AMONG OTHERS.

REQUIRING A MOST INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION, IN 2013 THE GALLERY MOVED ITS OPERATIVE BASE IN LUGANO, WHERE A NEW OFFICE WAS OPENED TOGETHER WITH A NEW PARTNERSHIP IN LONDON WITH THE WELL-KNOWN COMPANY TRINITY FINE ART LOCATED AT 15 OLD BOND STREET, MAYFAIR.
TO THE SCULPTOR MEDARDO ROSSO THE GALLERY HAS DEEPLY DEDICATED ITS INTEREST WITH THE PUBLICATION OF FOUR IMPORTANT RESEARCH BOOKS IN THE LAST THREE YEARS.
