Cristina Guerra Contemporary Art was officially inaugurated in March of 2001. Run by Cristina Guerra, the gallery predominantly focuses the conceptual work of 27 contemporary artists. Besides participating in high-profile art fairs, the gallery also organizes exhibitions with foreign guest curators, conceived as platforms of exchange, discussion and expansion. The gallery follows a tight schedule of eight to nine exhibitions per year, which are planned over a year in advance. Besides this active program, during several short interludes, the gallery hosts book launches and performances/happenings. The gallery also supports many of its artists’ publications and promotes artists’ exhibitions in local and foreign museums and institutions by extensively communicating these events to its audience of visitors and the local and international press.
