Emerge
04.06.2024 - 31.08.2024 | collective exhibition
"Convergences" is an exhibition that invites you to explore the fascinating intersection between abstract and figurative art. From September 1-30, our gallery becomes a dynamic space where young contemporary artists share their unique perspectives of the world.
In this exhibition, the boundaries between the concrete and the abstract are blurred, allowing shapes, colors and textures to merge in a visual harmony that conveys emotions and concepts.
Each work is a window into the artist's mind and heart, from bold brushstrokes of abstraction to detailed figurative representations.
Eccentric attraction
14.03.2024 - 31.05.2024
Eccentric abstraction is a search for a three-dimensional presence on the canvas. The paint strokes seem to float and exist in a state of zero gravity. The drips and the many techniques Alex uses in his art flow together and intertwine in the composition. The white canvas represents the VOID, while the brown linen serves as a background plane.
Alex Voinea of Romanian descent based in Barcelona, is a neo-expressionist artist, and his compositions serve as a reaction against formal and minimalist structures of abstraction, focusing more on emotion and impact.
Urban dreams
07.03.2024 through 13.03.2024
Simon Cruz, internationally renowned Mexican artist, presents ‘Urban Dreams’, a profound reflection on life in modern cities. His works combine abstract art with influences from the urban avant-garde, using mixed media and intense colours to explore themes such as meditation, society and cultural heritage. With over 100 exhibitions worldwide *Simon Cruz explores urban life through abstract compositions that capture the dynamism of contemporary cities.
Contrastes
12.01.2024 through 14.03.2024
In his quest for balance, Jordi Artigas presents a series that is paradoxically harmonious and disruptive. Each canvas becomes a platform for intentional contrasts, a dialogue between order and spontaneity. The artist's chosen medium is a blend of coffee, glue, and water on canvases featuring persistent blank spaces or a natural linen background.

The essence of the form
The Matiz Gallery in Barcelona presents the new art exhibition by Palma Alvariño, titled "The Essence of Form."
When we immerse ourselves in a work of art, whether it be painting or sculpture, we encounter a world of shapes and colors that pique our curiosity. We ask ourselves: What meaning does it hold? What message does it seek to convey? Sometimes, we insist on seeking rational answers to these questions, but some artists, like Palma Alvariño, invite us to experience art in a more sensory and contemplative way.
