LA GALERIE 38 ESTABLISHES ITSELF IN GENEVA
Since its founding in 2010 in Casablanca by Fihr Kettani and Mohammed Chaoui El Faiz, La Galerie 38 has established itself as an indispensable reference in contemporary art, offering a space for expression and dialogue to artists from all backgrounds. Nestled in the heart of the Studio des Arts Vivants, a cultural hub that also houses a performing arts school and a professional theater, the gallery has affirmed itself as a true incubator of talent and a key player in the promotion of Moroccan art on the international scene.
An Expansion Driven by a Global Vision
With a demanding and innovative program, La Galerie 38 has showcased major figures in the contemporary art scene while supporting the emergence of new voices. Aware of the central role of art in cultural exchanges, it fosters encounters between generations and influences, actively contributing to the diversity and richness of the artistic landscape.
In 2023, building on its roots in Morocco and its commitment to contemporary creation, La Galerie 38 opened a second space in Marrakech, in the heart of the Gueliz district, where history and modernity intersect. This location quickly became an artistic crossroads, welcoming established and emerging artists, while participating in major international art events, placing the gallery in a dynamic of international expansion.
Geneva: A New Chapter for La Galerie 38
Today, La Galerie 38 takes a new step with the opening, on Wenesday, April 9th, 2025, of a space in Geneva, in the heart of the Bains district, renowned for its concentration of museums, galleries, and major institutions. This new address is in line with its commitment to contemporary creation.
Building on a long-standing collaboration with Geneva-based Art Advisor Julie Fazio, the opening of a third space for La Galerie 38 in Geneva is a natural and strategic evolution.
Now at the helm of this new gallery, Julie Fazio brings her expertise in European contemporary art, with a particular specialization in geometric abstraction, to the gallery. La Galerie 38 Geneva thus becomes a crossroads of influences, a space for dialogue where Africa and the West meet and intertwine beyond apparent cultural divides.
La Galerie 38 Geneva will offer a demanding and eclectic program, highlighting painting, sculpture, installation, and photography through exhibitions that bring emerging artists and key figures of the international art scene into dialogue. More than just an exhibition space, it aims to become a place of encounter and exchange, where sensibilities, aesthetics, and artistic visions from various horizons intersect.
La Galerie 38 Geneva is a veritable bridge between the artistic scenes of Africa, Europe, and beyond. Faithful to its conviction that art knows no borders, it offers a setting where contemporary creation can fully express itself, resonating with the questions and aspirations of our time.
With this expansion in Switzerland, La Galerie 38 marks a new stage in its development, affirming more than ever its vocation to promote art without borders, anchored in the present and turned towards the future.
