We are a private gallery that represents Latin American artists of various generations. Our special focus is in Cuba. A key area that we specialize in is the independent art that addresses social and political realities. We represent artists whose work embodies a longing for an open, tolerant and free society and culture, and who experience various forms of repression. Their art and their work is often a form of resistance to such restrictions. 

Through the art we exhibit and sell, we are committed to supporting the artists that are part of our resistArt group, and back up the causes they stand for.

Our goals is to make the art more accessible and easy to purchase; to back today’s brightest creative talents from Latin America and their causes; to raise awareness about problems of the societies of Latin American countries, and put in a spotlight the artists who long for an open and tolerant society and culture.  

Last but not least, we would like to change the reception of contemporary art that is considered by many people as inaccessible, difficult to understand, addressed only to a very narrow group of art lovers. 

We believe in female power – as the collective of three women from different cultural and professional backgrounds, we hope to contribute to a change.
