Founded in 1965, Galerie Gmurzynska has built an impressive presence in Europe and North America through its museum quality exhibitions and publications. Now as it enters its fifth decade, Galerie Gmuryznska continues to expand its distinctive approach to artwork and cultural understanding in Abu Dhabi, which is quickly becoming recognized as one of the world's intellectual artistic hubs. The gallery was present at the inaugural artparis Abu Dhabi last year, and this month will return to the show, adding to its extensive presence at other high profile art fairs, such as Art Basel, and Art Basel Miami Beach, both established global cultural and social highlights for Europe and the Americas.
In addition to the classic modern, impressionist and classic contemporary masterworks the gallery will show at the Fair, it will also be bringing to the Monumental Art Garden in the Emirates Palace the feature piece of the Fair, 'Le Chien en trois couleurs', an important large scale work by renowned sculptor Alexander Calder.
Mathias Rastorfer, partner at Galerie Gmurzynska, highlighted his promise to the region and said:
"We have chosen to participate in artparis Abu Dhabi because we believe in the commitment that is being made to the city's growing cultural scene. Thanks to the vision of the government, Abu Dhabi is becoming associated with world-class art and culture, and its place on the international art map is being firmly stamped."
He continues, "We were greatly encouraged by the reaction we received last year. The quality of the pieces we have sourced and returned with this year to showcase to the local market reinforces the belief we have in Abu Dhabi as an increasing sophisticated and enthusiastic market for art collectors."
