The Nit de l'Art of Palma celebrates 30 years with a hundred artists
The appointment, scheduled for September 19, will bring together 16 Art Palma Contemporani galleries and will also extend to cultural spaces in Mallorca and Menorca
PalmaThe Nit de l'Art will celebrate its 30th edition this year with a hundred artists and around fifty exhibitions spread mainly throughout Palma, but also in other municipalities of Mallorca, such as Andratx and Pollença, and Menorca. The artistic event will be held on September 19th, between 6 PM and 11 PM, and will once again turn the Balearic capital into a showcase of contemporary art.
The new edition was presented this Tuesday by the president of the Art Palma Contemporani gallery association, Fran Reus, who highlighted the 30-year history of an initiative that has established itself as one of the main artistic events in the Islands.
In this edition, 16 private art establishments associated with Art Palma Contemporani are participating, with the collaboration of different institutions, including the Palma City Council and the Government of the Balearic Islands. The Councilor for Culture of Cort, Javier Bonet, explained that this edition will bring together around fifty exhibitions with works by a hundred artists. Among the participants, there will be both established creators and emerging profiles, with the aim of giving visibility to different generations and trends in contemporary art.
A circuit beyond the galleries
The Nit de l’Art will not be limited this year to the 16 associated private spaces. The program will be completed with exhibitions and activities in various cultural facilities of the Balearic Islands. Among these spaces are the Casal Solleric, CaixaForum Palma, Es Baluard Museum of Contemporary Art of Palma, the Juan March Foundation, the Pollença Museum, and the Miró Mallorca Foundation, among others.
The proposal will thus allow for expanding the artistic circuit beyond the galleries in the center of Palma and incorporating cultural institutions and projects from different municipalities of the Archipelago. With three decades of history, the Nit de l’Art arrives this year at an especially symbolic edition, with a program that combines emerging artists and consolidated creators, private galleries and cultural institutions, and which maintains Palma as the main epicenter of the event.
