rt takes over Palma on September 21st with the annual Nit del Art event that officially opens the fall art season on the island. Presented by Art Palma Contemporani, Nit del Art takes place between 18h - 23h and will include exhibition openings in a host of galleries and museums, performances, open studios and related art events.
The 12 galleries that are part of Art Palma Contemporani, which this year celebrates its twentieth anniversary, are ABA ART, BARÓ, CCA Andratx, Galería Fermay, Galería Fran Reus, KEWENIG Palma, LA BIBI, L21, Maior Pollença, Galeria Pelaires, Pep Llabrés Art Contemporani and Xavier Fiol Gallery. The main objective of Art Palma Contemporani is to facilitate public access and awareness to culture, to put forward a diversity of voices and styles and to promote the tireless work of artists so that their efforts, talent and research reach more and more people in the best and most accessible ways possible.
In addition to these twelve galleries are several ‘off’ events in collaboration with Tube Gallery and Galeria 6a, as well as Taca and Stain Projects. And a special installation by Jaume Roig made in collaboration with metalsmith Joan Ramon Sunyer will be featured at the Sant Francesc Hotel. While the majority of events are happening in Palma, there are adjacent exhibitions happening in Pollença, with Galeria Maior, and at the CCA in Andratx.
