Well-established in 1877, Sala Par\u00e9s is the first art gallery founded in Spain.<\/p>\n
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. Guests artists and curators are invited to show their respective creations and selections in these spaces as well. It also has a space dedicated exclusively to graphic art.
\nAs 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.<\/p>\n
Sala Par\u00e9s is located in Barcelona\u2019s Gothic Quarter, at its founding address, where it has been offering generous open exhibition space ever since 1877. Throughout its history, the Gallery has exhibited some of the most important artists in Catalan and Spanish history.<\/p>\n
Most artists who had a historic relationship with Sala Par\u00e9s are represented in its Private Collection. Their work is occasionally exhibited in displays devoted to 19th and 20th century masters, which are held annually.<\/p>\n
Sala Par\u00e9s organises extraordinary curated exhibitions on specific episodes in the history of Catalan art and on its most renowned historical artists. These exhibitions are part of the \u201cHeritage\u201d concept, initiated by the gallery following the celebration of its 140th anniversary (2017), and aim to give visibility to and reclaim the work of creators who have been unjustly forgotten, as well as to investigate and illustrate relevant episodes in the gallery\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
Sala Par\u00e9s collaborates with museums, cultural institutions, universities, foundations and other international and foreign art galleries.<\/p>\n
The gallery also organises concerts, guided tours and various cultural activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9174,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","zone_place":[95],"class_list":["post-4919","place","type-place","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","zone_place-ciutat-vella-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
