Miami Beach is welcoming a new destination for art lovers and collectors with the arrival of internationally acclaimed Italian artist and art designer Alex Turco’s newest gallery. Opening with an exclusive VIP Preview on June 11, the new space introduces Turco’s “ONLY ONE” collection – a design collection of one-of-a-kind textured wall art, sculptures, and collectible design objects. Each piece is entirely unique, created once and never replicated, offering collectors the rare opportunity to acquire works that exist nowhere else in the world. 

Known for his innovative approach to resin-based artwork, architectural panels, sculptures, and collectible design, Turco has built a global reputation for creating immersive pieces that blur the lines between fine art and design. His work has been commissioned for luxury spaces including Christian Dior boutiques in Shanghai, Louis Vuitton showrooms in Paris, and private residences across six continents.

“Each piece holds the memory of a place,” says Turco. “This collection is about transforming nature into art while preserving its essence. These works are not inspired by nature, they are nature, transformed.”

The ONLY ONE collection uses salt, volcanic stone, sea sponges, charred wood, and calcified minerals, gathered from meaningful places across the globe. Using his signature epoxy resin techniques, Turco transforms these organic elements into works that blur the boundaries between contemporary art, sculpture, and collectible design, preserving in permanent form what nature created over centuries. Each work is handcrafted by Turco himself, transforming natural elements into sophisticated luxury objects that tell a story of place, memory, and transformation.

As collectors continue to seek meaningful pieces with authenticity, craftsmanship, and narrative value, ONLY ONE offers an entirely new category of acquisition with works that are simultaneously sculptural, experiential, and deeply personal. Miami Beach provides the perfect setting for Turco’s artistic vision, with its vibrant cultural landscape, international collector community, and appreciation for design-driven living. The new gallery is poised to become a must-visit destination for art lovers, collectors, architects, designers, and anyone looking to discover exceptional works unlike anything else in the market today. 

The VIP Preview event will serve as the gallery’s soft opening, offering invited guests an exclusive first look at the collection before public programming begins. The gallery’s grand opening will take place on October 1, 2026. Turco will also be displaying his new collection at the NOMAD HAMPTONS Show at the Watermill Center from June 25 to June 28.
