Taimeless Art Gallery Taormina

About

The new season of the Taimeless art gallery in Taormina is underway.

The Taimeless Art Gallery in Taormina, one of the most important art sites in Italy. Reopens on March 27, 2025. Closed for a few months to work on new art spaces and start again with a new impetus.

The Hand of Taimen is a hand of lava, two hands in one. The hand of King Tauro and the hand of his wife Menia, founders of Taormina. Installed outside the Taimeless Gallery in Taormina, on the palm of the hand there is a Vulcan Hourglass, which marks time and strength. Resting the palm of your hand on Taimen prolongs life and love.

It was March 23, 2024 and the opening of Taimeless was preceded by an extraordinary Gala Evening held in the historic and prestigious location of Palazzo Ciampoli, where, since the afternoon, thousands of guests arrived in Taormina and during the event the large rooms of the palace seemed small to accommodate the crowd that climbed up the Scalinata Ciampoli. International art critics, friends of the three owners of the Gallery, institutional figures, artists, designers, all together enjoyed an evening dedicated to Art, one of a kind, about 4500 people, arriving from all over the world, something unique and rare for an Art Gallery.

Taimeless, is a global art gallery specializing in the exhibition of modern, contemporary and classical works, actively collaborating with many internationally renowned artists. Its founders, long committed to promoting cultural programs and artistic events around the world, present a diverse range of works that span different art forms, including painting, drawing, sculpture, installation and photography. The gallery is distinguished by its commitment to promoting both emerging and established artists, cultivating connections that cross artistic generations. In addition to its exhibition programming, the three co-founders Francesco Chinnici, Antonio D’Aveni and Stefano Sciacca, devote great attention to direct collaboration with their collectors, offering personalized artistic consultancy services and assistance in building and enriching their collections. In addition, the gallery facilitates the realization of museum exhibitions, special projects and commissions for public and private collections.

The gallery has hosted works by international artists such as Lucio Fontana, Zhu Wei, Lorenzo Chinnici, Sam Francis, Achille Laugé, Maximilienn Luce, Mimmo Rotella, Giuseppe Santomaso, Renato Guttuso, Alberto Magnelli, Andy Warhol and many more upcoming exhibitions. We present with integrity and discretion only the most extraordinary works of art from its collectors. The Gallery stands out for its collaboration with world-famous curators, contributing to the creation of exhibitions of historical importance. Located in Taormina, in one of the most beautiful and luxurious spots in the world. This magical city is the ideal place for new art collectors, belonging to the new generation, but also for art lovers without age. Among the favorite destinations of foreign tourism in Italy there is Taormina, a reference destination for holidays in Southern Italy, also dragged by the effect of the increasingly significant presence of the big spenders of global luxury. Since 2022 the top world brands have resided in Taormina and continue to invest and create their projects in the Ionian pearl of the Mediterranean. 

Inside a prestigious building dating back to the 18th century, it offers an unparalleled artistic experience, surrounded by the aura of grandeur and beauty that permeates this historic place. Here, a few steps from the historic Piazza Duomo, the past and the present blend in a perfect union, enriched by the presence of illustrious visitors such as Oscar Wilde, Guy de Maupassant, Alexandre Dumas Jr., Richard Wagner e Johannes Brahms. Immersed in this enveloping setting, we offer an engaging experience in the contemporary artistic panorama, welcoming art lovers in an environment steeped in history, charm and magnificence.

Taimeless is also an elegant and refined jewelry store, where the unique and exclusive luxury Taimeless Jewelry and Accessory are distributed. Our jewelry is offered in a multitude of interpretations, in various geometric shapes and colors. The shades of gold, the vibrant colors of precious stones, as well as the brilliance of diamonds create a wonderful collection of necklaces, rings, earrings, brooches and bracelets.  The jewelry design we have selected is for everyone: from those who adopt a minimalist style, to those who love to stand out and adopt different styles. Our Lava Jewels are our identity, an ancestral jewel, from the rock in a molten state that comes out following an eruption, and from the same rock once it has solidified after cooling, it is shaped into a unique jewel. In the vast universe of jewelry, the expression “fine jewelry” highlights a category of creations that goes beyond the traditional concept of ornamentation. These masterpieces display a unique elegance and splendor, becoming authentic icons of refinement and luxury. A special jewel is more than a simple ornament; it is a work of art created with artisanal mastery. Every detail is taken care of with precision, from the setting of the stones to the modeling of the metal. The artisans dedicate hours of work to create unique pieces that express their skill and passion.

Sparkling diamonds, rare gems, diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds and noble metals such as platinum, gold, become the basic ingredients of these extraordinary creations. The careful choice of high-quality materials helps to give an aura of prestige and intrinsic value to the jewel. Another distinctive feature is the exclusive design. Taimeless jewels present unique creations, personalized to reflect the personality of the wearer. Every detail, from shape to engraving, is carefully studied to create a one-of-a-kind piece. Wearing such a jewel goes beyond simple decoration; it is a way of expressing a lifestyle, an innate elegance and an appreciation for art and beauty. The complexity of the creation combined with the value of the precious stones, return a jewel of inestimable beauty. The durability and intrinsic value of a high-end jewel make it an investment over time. These pieces often become family heirlooms, passed down from generation to generation, maintaining their beauty and meaning over the years.

The last true luxury that humanity of all times and places can afford is "time", a limited wealth that does not discriminate based on wealth. The mission is to grant the illusorily certain luxury of time, the window through which one enjoys life. Experienced with love, elegance and commitment, it guarantees eternity and is the essence of the best that humanity creates. Taimeless aspires to be a "sensation suspended in time" by promoting the works of Masters of Art, aiming for eternity in an infinite moment of happiness. True art makes man eternal through values and principles. Taormina, a magical place where time seems to stop, celebrates the Pathos of art, influenced by illustrious figures such as Klimt, Wagner and Wilde.

Taimless is the essence of who we are; admirers of iconic beauty who, with strength and determination, typical of those who love Italy, want to be its ambassador in the world.

It is no coincidence that we chose this name which, on the one hand, refers to the English "Timeless", on the other hand it contains within itself both the 'TA' of Taormina that the ''T'AIME'' of I love you. Taimeless embodies and wants to make its own the meanings and aspirations inherent in these three words.

“Timeless”: whose ancient etymology, Gallic even before English, means “not changed – not limited”, was imagined in the centuries as "suspended time": where everything - equal to itself - is forever, or, in any case, for an unlimited time, immune to change, without an end.

Although Man is well aware that time passes inexorably, between a beginning and an end, between a birth and a death, he strongly clings to the only certainty of eternity: the "live” in love and in all the ethical and aesthetic values that make harmony, refinement and elegance a powerful balm for the soul as well as a true and unique legacy for future generations.

“Ta“– Taormina: ancient land, crossroads of people, where time has been marked by the great events of history; a magical place, epicenter of the dream which is both the flow and stopping of time.

‘’T’aime’’: Without love, which elevates us from the evil and misleading idols of power, worth and possessions, there can be no hope or its manifestation, such as art.

‘’The Hourglass’’: Everything is tempered by the hourglass, the very symbol of time and its flow. As mentioned, as much as one may dream and lean towards eternity, time passes and is measured.

‘‘The Volcano": The A of Taimeless is not just an hourglass, it is also a Volcano, the Force, Energy in its pure state. The creative power of a thousand-year-old symbol, which has always been a source of inspiration and fascination for humanity and artists.

The true and only luxury that Man of all times and places can allow himself is "time". It doesn't matter if you, Man, are rich or not, time runs out for everyone. Time is a limited wealth, because there is no revenue or “benefit” in this type of economy. Give you the luxury of time in a present, illusorily certain, which is already past and reaches out towards a formless future, is our mission. Time is the highest form of luxury. It is the window that allows Man to enjoy life. This is why over the centuries generations of thinkers, such as Archimedes and Leonardo Da Vinci, have followed one another in the frantic attempt to understand its mechanisms, to measure it, to stop it.

Time cannot be possessed, but it is the only thing essential for living. Time lived with love, with elegance, with commitment is what guarantees eternity because they fly with the best that humanity could ever create. Luxury, the availability of managing your own time. The Hourglass is the symbol of our “concept”.

Today, the epicenter of taste and beauty, open to the multiple sensitivities of the globe, is rooted in Italy. Our task will be to guarantee, protect and promote those uniquenesses that can boast of being Italian because the design, planning and manufacturing took place on "our" territory. Also comparing ourselves with international excellence.

Taimeless, therefore aims to be a "sensation suspended in time" that aspires to eternity.

Through the promotion of the works of the Masters of the Art we want to iconize our philosophy, trying to make it more tangible, stopping "Your time", to suspend it in an infinite moment of happiness and fulfillment for your soul.

Art, the real one, is itself beauty, elegance and knowledge, and makes the living man the MAN who overcomes the passage of time and becomes eternal thanks to his values and principles that shine through the work itself.

This is what pushed us to create our project in Taormina; one of the most beautiful places in the world, with a breathtaking view, between the crystalline reflections of the Ionian Sea and the dormant massifs of the Etna volcano, whose energy shapes the air, influencing the ancient magic that stops time; land of fire and love.

The Phatos of art in Taormina is a journey through the history of its influences and dominations, which have left indelible traces and which have seen it as the muse of illustrious painters, musicians, writers and poets over the centuries, such as Klimt, Wagner, Gay de Maupassant, Lawrence, Wilde, Goethe and many others.

All enraptured by the Italian charm where one has the sensation that time passes slowly, almost stops, as if the Gods had chosen a magical place to take refuge, and to play with nature, creating strong contrasts, where the light has within itself inherent darkness, good... the sea, life... death in a continuous longing aimed at achieving a balance..., which is at the same time a creative force and eternity.

Taimeless therefore sets itself the goal of seizing this suspended time.... eternal, choosing for you unique creations in the world that capture this essence, this creative force which is pure Energy.
