Gathering is delighted to announce the opening of our second permanent gallery, opening on 18 May in Ibiza.
“I couldn’t be more excited to be opening Gathering Ibiza in Sant Miquel de Balansat, bringing the cutting-edge programme and artist-led ethos of our London gallery to an international stage. Gathering’s aim is to further expand our ambitious exhibition programme of emerging practices, international voices and established artists to become a cornerstone of Ibiza’s developing art scene.” — Alex Flick, Founder & Director
The inaugural group show Substance will feature work by Kristian Kragelund, Rannva Kunoy and Jennifer Tee. Each of the artists uses unconventional materials to experiment with formalism, encoding wall-based media with histories and ideas that operate just beneath the works’ surfaces. The diversity of each practice is linked by an expansive, near-sculptural abstraction, with a special awareness of the ways material degrades or evolves as time passes and looking is prolonged.
Olga Shelkovnikova has joined as director of Gathering Ibiza, while Sigfrido Scuticchio will run Mira, the gallery’s on-site restaurant. Named after Alex Flick’s daughter, Mira features a sculptural commission as well as a bar, furniture and lighting designed by Gathering artist Tai Shani. The restaurant will offer a relaxed terrace dining experience with a Mediterranean menu influenced by Ibicencan traditions and locally sourced produce.
