Our exhibition spaces periodically host art and photography exhibitions, which we often carry out together with the nearby Palazzo Ferrero and Palazzo La Marmora, with which Palazzo Gromo Losa constitutes the Cultural Center of Biella Piazzo. Among the most important exhibitions of recent years have been Henri Cartier-Bresson. Sam, Lilette and Sébastien Szafran collection. The Pierre Gianadda Foundation in Biella (2016), Darwin. The impossible universe narrated by Dario Fo with paintings and puppets (2016), Lands of Men. Adams, Shore, Goldblatt, Ghirri, Basilico and other 22 great photographers tell the landscape in collaboration with the Modena Arti Visive Foundation (2017), the exhibition on Futurism as part of the "100 percent Italy" project of the Ettore Fico Museum in Turin ( 2018), the Ettore Pistoletto Olivero exhibition project. Michelangelo Pistoletto. Father and Son created in collaboration with Cittadellarte - Fondazione Pistoletto and Fondazione Zegna (2019) and the latest editions of Selvatica - Arte e Natura in Festival (from 2015).
At the Biella Piazzo Cultural Hub, from April 25 to July 19, 2026, Selvatica – Art and Nature in Festival returns, the biennial event entirely dedicated to nature and the environment.
The historic Gromo Losa and Ferrero palaces are ready to host artists, photographers, creatives, and researchers in a program that combines painting, photography, and sculpture exhibitions with educational workshops and side events, all united by a single, overarching goal: the safeguarding and protection of the environment.
Selvatica 2026 will feature the first major exhibition in Italy dedicated to the American artist John James Audubon, one of the most important naturalist artists in history. Born at the end of the 18th century in the French colony of Santo Domingo (modern-day Haiti), Audubon is famous for his spectacular illustrations of American birds, compiled in the celebrated and monumental The Birds of America.
An exceptional selection of 40 masterpieces will arrive in Biella, offering a unique opportunity to admire in person the expressive power and scientific precision that have made Audubon a timeless icon.
