No Man’s Art Pop-up Gallery CDMX

No Man’s Art Gallery, the Amsterdam-based gallery, opens the doors of its tenth international pop-up gallery in Mexico City on Saturday November 12th. Previous editions of the pop-up gallery took place in Tehran, Shanghai, Cape Town, Mumbai and various European cities. In each country, the gallery collaborates with local young and emerging artists and invites them to the next destination of the project to introduce them to a new network of art professionals, collectors and artists.

The nomadic exhibition concept is rather unique and innovative within the global art market. The aim is to democratise the international art market by supporting artists from all over the world early in their career. The gallery uses her network and platform to promote their work in multiple countries besides their own, ensuring that they will be noticed by a wide and international audience so that their emergence on the international art market can be facilitated. By fostering a culturally rich and diverse group of artists and by strengthening the ties amongst them, the project generates access to alternative markets and mitigates any conditions that might limit an artist’s professional opportunities at home.

On November 12th 2022 the No Man’s Art Pop-up Gallery opens in a three storey iconic space in Sta. Maria la Ribera in Mexico City. The exhibition holds the work of over 15 international and Mexican emerging artists, many of whom will be present at the opening party.

About No Man's Art Gallery

No Man's Art Gallery is an organisation run by Emmelie Koster (1986, NL) and Lih-Lan Wong (1987, NL) that promotes the visibility of emerging artists on the international art market. The gallery has two permanent spaces in Amsterdam. The No Man’s Art Pop-up Gallery is a non-profit initiative that will take place for the tenth time in Mexico City, November 2022. Previous editions were organised in Iran, South Africa, China, India and various European countries. The initiative organises a residency programme for international artists and a ten day exhibition in which Mexican emerging visual artists exhibit alongside artists that were selected during the previous projects. Around fifteen international and Mexican artists will come together in the pop-up gallery. The residency and exhibition programme are focused on exchange between local and global artists and art professionals. Previous editions of organising the pop-up gallery and the related residency programme have proven to create incredibly valuable opportunities for the participating artists and the networks of young artists that they operate in.

Amongst the participating artists are Sam Samiee (Iran/the Netherlands), Buhlebezwe Siwani (South Africa), Arash Fakhim (Iran/the Netherlands), Bertrand Peyrot (France), Mia Chaplin (South Africa), Merijn Kavelaars (the Netherlands), Afra Eisma (the Netherlands), Alejandro Galván (Mexico), Wendy Cabrera Rubio (Mexico), Alan Hernández (Mexico), Jamal Nxedlana (South Africa), Marilyn Sonneveld (the Netherlands), Israel Urmeer (Mexico), Rodrigo Red Sandoval (México), Josh Rodríguez (Mexico), Chavis Mármol (Mexico), María Vez (Mexico)

No Man’s Art Gallery and the participating Netherlands-based artists are grateful for the support of the Mondriaan Fonds.
