Colorida Art Gallery seeks to provide its artists with a solid podium that achieves both to best present the individuality of their works and to draw attention to the works’ inherent cultural significance. The gallery has a strong commitment to its artists and has worked with galleries and institutions around the world to accelerate and sustain their careers. Most of its artists have had extensive museum activity, monographs, critical acclaim and important recognition from international collectors. Colorida assists both beginner and veteran collectors, buying and selling contemporary works of established and emerging artists.
The Colorida Art Gallery was founded in 2007 and is located in a building more than 150 years old by the Castle of Sao Jorge on the highest hill of the historic centre of Lisbon. Its principal focus is to represent an international group of contemporary artists whose diverse creative practices include painting, photography, sculpture and drawing. Embracing artists who are both emerging and established, trained and self-taught, Colorida cultivates artistic growth and makes a vital contribution to the European arts community.
