20 studios will open their doors in Gaucín during the Open studios 2019.
This year, 22 artists will show their works at Gaucin’s celebrated Open Studios event.
Visitors are welcome to meet the artists in their studios and to see a wide variety of works, styles and techniques, from paintings and prints to ceramics and sculpture.
This year the Art Gaucin group welcomes three new members: Christine Spencer-Green, Ira Goldberg and Catherine Hunter.
We also have three new guest artists from the region: Karina Zothner (Tarifa), Pepe Barroso (Algeciras) and Lieuwke Loth (Cómpeta).
With these new faces and new works, we invite you to save the dates for the 16th Art Gaucin Open Studios event which we hope will be better than ever. Don’t miss it!

In the context of the Venice Art Biennial 2019, the GAA Foundation presents the exhibition "PERSONAL STRUCTURES", involving Jim Rattenbury, member of the Art Gaucín collective.
The exhibition is hosted and supported by the European Cultural Centre and will open on may 11th.
The exhibition shows an extensive combination of
internationally established artists and artists whose works are less
well-known. A cross-section of what can be seen as contemporary art today. The
selected artists come from many different parts of the world, different
cultures resulting in very different artworks. Visually, the artworks may
appear very different, but all artists present their own subjective, personal
expression of their reflection on the concepts Time, Space and Existence.
The exhibition mainly presents recent artworks by living artists, either site-specific, specially made for this exhibition, or taken from the existing collection of the artist. Some rooms in the palazzos are dedicated to the presentation of a single artist, while other rooms will present a combination of projects and works. Strong statements give each of the rooms a very specific character. The exhibition features a broad variety of artistic media; video, sculptures, paintings, drawings, photos and installations. Since the more than 200 participating artists originate from very diverse cultures representing over 40 countries and are also of very different age, the topics Time – Space – Existence are highlighted from unusual, very personal points of view.
Ana Pellón is showing her latest work, “The
soul…light of the interior”, in Paris this month (February) at the Espace
Culturel Bertin Poirée.
“The void is an enigma, the thread that crosses structures and converges with
the world of dreams. This emptiness is not real, there is a seed of life that
has been and will be. The vacuum is inside us. In the environment where I live,
time is light.”
This is how Ana explains the inspiration for her exhibition, which takes place
in Paris from February 19 to March 2.
We wish Ana good luck in this new exhibition.
