ラファエラ・コルテーゼ・ギャラリーは、時代の顔となるアーティストをサポートする目的で1995年にミラノで活動を開始した。1998年にプロジェクトルームを拡大し、2003年にはRaffaella Cortese Gallery began its activity in Milan, Italy in 1995 with the purpose of promoting the most significant artists of their time.、大型インスタレーションや、ビデオ、彫刻を使用するアーティストなどにも対応できる大きなスペースへと移転した。
ギャラリーの方向性は、様々なメディアを用いる、国際的アーティストの個展に特化する中で形作られてきた。同時に、芸術的感覚を通して強烈な影響力のある題材について綿密な調査を実施して共通的な傾向の蓄積も行ってきた。
芸術写真家、アメリカ人女性アーティストへの個展を通して、社会的問題にも目を向け、東欧出身のアーティストを通して、人間の存在意義にも注目することで、オーストリア人、韓国人、イタリア人などのアーティストにも共通する文化的アイデンティティにも触れている。そんな中で最も重要視しているのがアーティストのバックグラウンドをきちんと表現するということである。

Translation: Kazunari Hongo In 1998 the gallery extended the exhibition space to a project room. In September 2003 it moved to a new and bigger space, more suitable for showing large installations of the artists represented as well as to present new artists that mostly used video or sculptures.
The direction of the gallery has taken shape over time through the precise choice of dedicating solo exhibitions to international artists who work with various media, but at the same time share a common inclination to deeply investigate new and classical topics, through an aesthetic sensitivity, strongly influenced by the present.
The gallery has dedicated solo exhibitions to artist photographers (Franco Vimercati, Jan Groover, James Welling, Jitka Hanzlová, Annelies Strba) and focuses on American woman artists such as Roni Horn, Kiki Smith, Jessica Stockholder and Zoe Leonard. Acclaimed protagonists of the international scene, some are involved in the exploration of feminine issues such as their experience as an artist, no longer from the perspective of a social claim, but as a way of enlarging the overall investigation of the human dimension.
The gallery also represents the work of european artists, with special attention to those coming from Eastern countries: Miroslaw Balka, Jitka Hanzlová, Jana Sterbak, Annelies Strba. Their work, centered on everyday aspects of human existence, as well as on social issues, is crossed by the common topic of cultural identity. This idea is also shared by artists of different latitudes such as australian Destiny Deacon, korean Kimsooja or italian Marcello Maloberti.
The gallery has collaborated also with important public istitutions (Castello di Rivoli, Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa, Fondazione Querini Stampalia, GAM of Torino, Triennale of Milan, Museion of Bolzano, Inverleith House of Edimburgo, Fundaciòn Marcelo Botin of Santander, Spain) and promoted particular projects as the projection of Kimsooja at Teatro la Fenice, Venice). It’ always important and basilar for the gallery to promote in the national and international background the represented artists.
