Guadalajara, city of artists and cultural epicenter of Mexico, stands out for its incomparable scene. With a tradition of creativity and expression, this city has flourished by merging contemporary trends and cultural roots. In this context, various galleries have emerged not only to exhibit but to redefine the boundaries of art and design. Each of them reflects the diversity and originality of local and international artists and serves as a reflection of the cultural and aesthetic evolution that defines the Jalisco capital.
This is the new reference for contemporary art in the city and a promoter of Guadalajara’s artistic heritage. Designed by architect Sergio Ortiz, it stands out for the vitroblock that illuminates the space and provides a sense of lightness. On its four levels, Plataforma can host two simultaneous exhibitions. On the first level, an international curator is selected annually. On the second level, the Suro Ceramic collection is exhibited, while the third level showcases the work of emerging artists.
SALA SILENCIOSA
Inside Casa Orozco, there is a unique gallery dedicated to exhibiting local and national art, standing out as a meeting point between artists and the public. The house studio is the work of muralist José Clemente Orozco and architect Luis Barragán, winner of the Pritzker Prize, the Nobel of Architecture. The historic place was Orozco’s residence and where he used to work on the iconic murals of the Cabañas Museum and the Paraninfo, thus seeking to turn this space into a showcase for the visual arts. Sala Silenciosa aims to enrich Guadalajara’s artistic landscape by offering visitors the opportunity to appreciate artworks in a serene and reflective environment.
A contemporary art gallery that represents and promotes the work of artists from around the world. This place has a hybrid model that responds to the dynamic art market. Páramo is dedicated to providing a solid platform for the production and exhibition of works, fostering a global dialogue through exhibitions that encompass various disciplines and feature both emerging and established artists.
This is a utilitarian design space distinguished by its collaborative spirit, bringing together more than twenty prominent Mexican creatives. Occidente celebrates the diversity of disciplines within design, from textiles to ceramics, furniture, and lighting, with each piece on display enriching the design landscape.
