Gabinete de dibujos

Gabinete de Dibujos is an art gallery dedicated to contemporary drawing, understood in a very broad sense, without technical or material limits, with the power to reflect on the challenges of the contemporary world and raise issues that affect us as a society and as individuals, as well as being the tool par excellence for the conceptualization, composition and creation of artistic work. One of the aspirations of the Gabinete de dibujos is to function as a mediator/communicator of the ideas and work of its artists, especially when conceiving, planning and producing the assemblies/staging of each exhibition, hand in hand with each author and always reaching consensus on ideas and solutions to the problems that arise. It has been in Valencia since 2020, presenting in its space around four exhibitions a year. It has participated in the international fairs Drawing Room Online '20, Drawing Room Madrid '21, UVNT'22 and ARTESANTANDER'24 and among its collaborating artists are Tania Blanco, Antonio Ballesteros, Ernesto Casero, Manuel Antonio Domínguez, ESCIF, Susanna Inglada, Ignacio García Sánchez, Roberto Mollá, Lara Ruiz, Santiago Talavera, Nieves Torralba and Ignacio Uriarte. It has been a member of the Consortium of Contemporary Art Galleries and LAVAC since 2021. It has participated three consecutive years in Abierto Valencia, the season opening event of the Valencian galleries, where it has received the Best Exhibition Award granted by the Generalitat Valenciana on two occasions.
