The Nicoletta Fiorucci Foundation is a non-profit arts organisation that promotes experimentation in contemporary art and design, with a focus on interdisciplinary, site-specific, ecological, and community-oriented approaches. Founded by collector and arts patron Nicoletta Fiorucci, the Foundation operates between London, with its headquarters and exhibitions programme in Chelsea, and Venice, where a new venue dedicated to annual commissions was inaugurated in 2025 with a show by Tolia Astakhishvili curated by Hans Ulrich Obrist.
Structured as an archipelago of homes and spaces across Europe, the Foundation supports artists and cultural institutions through exhibitions, events, publications, and residencies. In 2025, it launched the Nicoletta Fiorucci Foundation Prize at Frieze London, supporting non-traditional media and unconventional forms of presentation at the fair, with Alex Margo Arden as its first recipient. Building on a decade of legacy from the Fiorucci Art Trust, the Foundation encourages unconventional approaches and the cross-pollination of radical ideas.
