About the gallery
Well-established
in 1877, Sala Parés is the first art gallery founded in Spain. It has three
different spaces in a single building located at heart of the Gothic Quarter of
Barcelona, where the work of the 35 contemporary artists with whom the gallery
works is exhibited. The Gallery usually holds individual exhibitions of its
resident artists in three separate display spaces.
As for
painting, it has both authors who work from contemporary figuration and
realism, as well as others who express themselves in abstraction. There are
also some artists from the gallery that focus on sculpture, photography and
video art, as well as others who formulate their proposals from hybrid
approaches with the intersection of various techniques and disciplines. Besides,
Sala Parés organises
extraordinary curated exhibitions on specific episodes in the history of
Catalan art and on its most renowned historical artists.
Sala Parés
collaborates with museums, cultural institutions, universities, foundations and
other international and foreign art galleries. The gallery also organises
concerts, guided tours and various cultural activities.
