Corso di Porta Ticinese 87. 20123 Milan. Italy
WIZARD LAB is a contemporary art gallery established through a partnership between Gabriela Galati and WIZARD GALLERY (Federico Luger and Riccardo G Luger). The gallery represents artists with research-driven practices that explore the intersections of art, science, technology, the environment, and the living. These artists critically engage with the media and tools central to their creative processes. WIZARD LAB showcases their work through a dynamic program of exhibitions, both in-gallery and off-site, and by participating in national and international art fairs.
The playful association of WIZARD with the term LAB evokes the idea of the laboratory as a space for both scientific and fictional invention. It simultaneously references the artist’s creative studio, the library as a hub of theoretical research—as described by Jussi Parikka in The Lab Imaginary—and the wizard’s tower or alchemical lab, spaces rich with imaginary experimentation. It also alludes to the historical era when magic, artistic inquiry, and science—as the methodological study of the natural and physical world—were intertwined.
