TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes is hosting the exhibition by Luis Palmero from 19 February to the 9 May: Escalas (Scales) (1980-2020), an exhibition curated by Nilo Palenzuela.”Immersed in post-minimal painting and geometric abstraction, no stranger to the movements of expressive freedom that unfolded in the eighties, the career of Luis Palmero (Santa Cruz de Tenerife, 1957) unfolds over forty years on motifs, planes of colour, shapes, grids, “landscapes” to which he constantly returns. However, as for the American and German artists born in the 1940s and 1950s, the abstract and geometric option is provisional and lacks dogmatism. He can move from one form to another, as well as being interested in figuration.

TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes is hosting from the 26 February to 13 June the exhibition. DOS AÑOS DE VACACIONES” (Two years on holiday). Céline Condorelli

In collaboration with the Frac in Metz and Macro in Rome, Céline Condorelli (Paris, 1974) proposes three exhibitions in each of the centres that start from architecture as structures designed not for inclusion but for segmentation. With the three collections she establishes a dialogue aimed at reflecting on the idea of Museum and Culture during the 20th century and how each of these institutions structures its space. All of them include pieces of several collections exhibited in the art centres.

from Tuesdays to Sundays, from 12:00 noon to 8:00 pm Sala C (floor 0)

Once again this year, Hall L of the Centro de Arte La Recova is hosting “El Carnaval chicharrero”, a collective exhibition of paintings by various artists, brought together under the common theme of the most popular festivities in the capital of Tenerife. The exhibition, which includes approximately fifty works, offers the particular vision that 31 artists have of the different acts and characters that make up the Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, using a wide range of techniques, from oils and acrylics to watercolours, collage and mixed media. The paintings, some figurative and others more conceptual, convey the colour, humour and joy of the festivities, artistically capturing situations, characters and details. The sizes of the paintings are also very varied, although the vast majority are small and medium format.

This is a tribute exhibition that BIBLI Gallery dedicates to the gallery owner Gonzalo Díaz. It portraits him as a key figure for contemporary art in the Canary Islands. His undoubted creative potential contributed to a future which has already become present reality. We have specially focused on those artists linked to the gallery during the 1970s (its most important period), or those artists specially linked to  Gonzalo Díaz, such as Gonzalo González, Cándido Camacho, Juan Hernández, Ernesto Valcárcel, Juan Bordes, José Antonio García Álvarez, Ildefonso Aguilar and Fernando Álamo. The art gallery “La Conca” was like home to a large and diverse generation of artists. Today Gonzalo Díaz is a myth and the art gallery “Conca” a historical place where his person and the art gallery merge as one.
