i23

Very close to the Retiro Park is this new art gallery, a creative space for the exchange of ideas, experimentation and the exhibition of emerging art projects. It is run by visual artist Manuel Álvarez Diestro and architect and artist Aurora Domínguez Mata.

Its aim is to disseminate and connect artistic excellence at all levels of professionalisation, giving a voice to proposals committed to contemporary discourses and encouraging both disciplinary hybridisation and the search for new aesthetic languages.

i23 develops its work through an annual public programme that includes curated exhibitions, videonales, performances, talks and presentations. All these activities aim to bring together different cultural agents with emerging and consolidated creators from the national and international scene.
