Casas Riegner was established in Miami in 2001. In 2004, after achieving an important position within the Miami art world, the gallery embarked on a challenging project: the promotion and dissemination of contemporary art within Colombia and abroad. In March 2005 the gallery opened its doors in Bogotá, thus developing an ambitious gallery project that focuses on research and artist selection with a clearly defined curatorial approach.
Promoting emerging and established artists that have significantly influenced the development of local contemporary art, Casas Riegner’s program aims at introducing new artists to local and international audiences, at periodically inviting foreign artists and leading curators, so as to provide a space for cultural exchange and novel discourse production. The program has been structured with the intent of presenting exhibitions with a high conceptual rigor and formal innovation that act as manifestations of reflective processes.
A regular at some of the world’s leading art fairs like Art Basel Miami Beach, Frieze London, and Frieze New York, Casas Riegner has been committed to encouraging the circulation and exchange of Colombian art on an international level for which it has quickly earned a reputation.
