Colonna
Contemporary
We're a contemporary art gallery bridging traditional and digital practices to reflect the emotional and cultural realities of our time.
​
We work with artists, emerging and established, who use both new and time-honored tools to ask sharper questions: about truth, memory, identity, and how we make meaning in a rapidly changing world.
Our program champions rigorous work with lasting impact, whether rendered in oil or code, pigment or pixel.
​
Based just outside Philadelphia and engaged globally, we present exhibitions, limited editions, and conceptual projects that speak to where art, and culture, are headed.

Welcome to the conversation
Young Americans
coming August, 2025
"They didn’t call ahead. They didn’t know what came next.
They packed their life into the back of a car, taped shut a box labeled “HOPE,” and drove toward the idea of a city."
Young Americans is a cinematic NFT series chronicling the quiet heroism of leaving home and moving to the big city. Told through eight surreal film-still moments, the collection captures the dreamlike, disjointed clarity of transition, when your whole life is reduced to boxes, car rides, and unfamiliar ceilings.
​
Rooted in realism but filtered through the poetic logic of memory, each scene draws from the emotional grammar of leaving: a parent’s last hug, a best friend’s laughter, the fluorescent glow of a gas station in Pennsylvania. Somewhere between a David Byrne lyric and a coming-of-age indie film, Young Americans doesn’t ask you to look back, but to remember how it felt to look forward.
