About
Colonna Contemporary is where art meets innovation. Nestled in the heart of the Philadelphia Mainline, our gallery bridges the timeless beauty of traditional mediums with the cutting-edge world of digital artistry. From pigment to pixel, we curate thought-provoking exhibitions that challenge conventions, spark dialogue, and inspire connection.
As pioneers in digital art integration, we were the first gallery to adopt advanced technologies like Transient Labs’ T.R.A.C.E. chip for digital authentication and Atomic Form's Proof of Exhibition protocol. This ensures every piece we showcase is not just a work of art but a certified moment in its cultural journey.
At Colonna Contemporary, we champion artists who are deeply dedicated to their craft, believing that great art finds its audience through authenticity and vision. Our mission is to serve as the bridge between physical and digital worlds, fostering a community of collectors, creators, and dreamers who share a passion for art’s transformative power.
Welcome to Colonna Contemporary. Welcome to the future of art.
Founding Story
Colonna Contemporary was founded with a simple yet ambitious mission: to create a space where art’s timeless traditions meet its boldest innovations.
The journey began with our Founder, Michele Colonna’s deep-rooted passion for art and a belief that every great piece tells a story—one that deserves to be celebrated. After years of witnessing the transformative power of art, Michele saw a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between the physical and digital worlds. This led to the creation of a gallery that not only honors the heritage of traditional mediums but also embraces the cutting-edge possibilities of digital art and blockchain technology.
