KALPA Art Living
Conceived as an immersive sanctuary, KALPA Galleries invites visitors into a timeless environment that feels simultaneously like a curated home and an otherworldly retreat. Set against the wild, ancient landscape of Volterra, Tuscany, its flagship resides within the 15th-century Palazzo Bonomini. A meticulous 2019 restoration by founder Olga Niescier and master restorer Cristiano Sabelli resurrected the palazzo’s historic walls using local stone and natural materials, effortlessly bridging centuries of history with contemporary elegance
Inside, KALPA champions a diverse global roster of artists and makers. They present tactile, organic works crafted from alabaster, bronze, raw earth, and wood—each piece intended to gracefully integrate into everyday life
Beyond its gallery walls, KALPA provides premier art consultancy for interior designers and architects. Their refined aesthetic vision has elevated prestigious global spaces, boasting high-profile collaborations with Aman New York, Molteni&C, and Milan Design Week

Polish visionary Olga Niescier (b. 1978) is a polymath fluent in art, design, and curation. Educated at Lodz’s Academy of Fine Arts and Florence’s Polimoda Institute, she has cultivated an interdisciplinary practice since 2001 that effortlessly blurs fashion, visual art, and performance
Yet, the canvas remains her most profound medium. Niescier’s paintings are meditative explorations of nature’s organic rhythms and botanical micro-universes—an evocative intersection of Zen philosophy and abstract expressionism
This holistic devotion to aesthetics culminates in KALPA Galleries. Far more than a traditional exhibition space, KALPA is the elegant distillation of her multifaceted career and a realization of her idealized concept of "art living." It is a carefully curated sanctuary where architecture, fine art, and the human experience converge in absolute harmony
