MC2gallery was founded in 2009 by Vincenzo Maccarone, then a young collector and Claudio Composti, gallerist who grew up in the artistic field thanks to his father, along with many of the most important artists of Transavanguardia and Arte Povera movements.

mc2gallery is specialized in the photography field and aims to discover and promote young emerging Italian and foreign artists, without neglecting the attention to the media as painting, sculpture, video or installations.

In 2018 the gallery opened its headquarters in Montenegro, in Lustica Bay but still promotes and organizes exhibitions in Italy and partecipates to the main art fairs around the world.
MC2Gallery has become over the years a point of reference for the photography field and the promotion of photographic culture in Italy.
