Galería Alegría

Galería Alegría began its trajectory in 2010 as an exhibition project motivated by the desire to give diffusion and visibility to artists characterized by a generous and stimulating attitude.

One of the main pillars on which Galería Alegría is established is the dedication to the pictorial and sculptural languages. The gallery's exhibition line focuses on abstract and figurative works, and often a mixture of both, following principles as simple as allowing oneself to be seduced by the plasticity of the works. Our selection of artists constitutes a program designed to satisfy those who seek in contemporary painting and sculpture a space for delight and reflexion. 

Focused on promoting the work of short and mid-career artists nationally and internationally, the gallery supports its artists by organizing their exhibitions both in the gallery space and in collaboration with other entities, as well as by participating in fairs in Spain and abroad.

Represented artists:

Chechu Álava, Mai Blanco, Breza Cecchini, Enrico Della Torre, Jorge Diezma, Bobby Dowler, Carole Ebtinger, Robbin Heyker, Thomas Kiesewetter, Matthew Musgrave, Alberto Peral, Humberto Poblete-Bustamante, Stefan Rinck, David Roth, Ken Sortais, Lolo & Sosaku

The absurd and strange landscapes and still lifes of Jorge Diezma (Madrid, Spain, 1973), apparently simple, actually refer to the search for an extremely elusive and fluid truth. They explore actuality, canons of acceptance, language and interests through the special lens of painting.

His exhibition at Galería Alegría will focus on his latest maritime still lifes, where the protagonists are fish and fruits resting casually on mysterious small rocks/islands located in the middle of the sea. Diezma's fish are lost, adrift, in improbable boats with improbable companions, with no fixed destination.
