HISTORY

With extensive experience as an independent curator, educator and artist, Wook Choi established Crecloo Art Gallery in New York in 2004 and later, in 2007, founded Wook + Lattuada Gallery in partnership with Flavio Lattuada. The gallery is located in Milan, Italy, and was originally founded in 1963 by the legendary art dealer Fiorella La Lumia. Today, Lattuada Gallery is a prestigious, third-generation, and the oldest gallery in Milan.

Specializing in contemporary art, Wook + Lattuada Gallery is active in both primary and secondary markets. The gallery boasts the largest collection of Futurist works worldwide and also features a diverse selection of 20th-century Italian modern art.

In the primary market, the gallery represents a diverse range of contemporary art, spanning from seminal minimalist works to large-scale installations, media art, video work, and collaboration with architect.

Lattuada Gallery has initiated a new Italian Art Movement called Rigorismo, influenced by Lucio Fontana and a survey exhibition of Italy's leading artists representing the genesis, progression, and future of Spazialismo (Spatialism). Rigorismo has its roots in the late 1940s Spazialismo movement and the German Zero movement of the late 1950s.

The gallery's pioneering Rigorismo artists include Lucio Fontana, Dadamaino, Enrico Castellani, Agostino Bonalumi, Pino Manos, Turi Simeti, Umberto Mariani, Pino Pinelli, Cesare Berlingeri, Angelo Brescianini, Stefano Brunello, Riccardo Gusmaroli, Nando Stevoli, Armando Marrocco, Gianfranco Migliozzi, Alberto Loro, Maria Savino, and Giuseppe Amadio.

Additionally, the gallery represents artists such as Angiola Churchill, Gabriele Maquignaz, Raymundo Sesma, Giuseppe Amadio and Nando Stevoli, Edoardo Menini and Pierluigi de Lutti.
