Salón Blanco
Gallery

As a result of the strategic alliances initiated in 2023 by the Fondo de Arte Joven, in collaboration with the Office of the Historian of the City of Havana (Cuba) and the Los Carbonell Foundation (Panama), the Salón Blanco del Convento de San Francisco de Asís was inaugurated as a gallery specializing in young contemporary art.

The management of the Fondo de Arte Joven in this space ceased in December 2024, a period in which 9 exhibitions were inaugurated, as well as several exchange sessions with international artists and curators. The programmatic objectives that defined the activity of this venue and the communication strategy with which the exhibits were promoted during this period were managed from the platform, contributing to the legitimization of this space in the community.

This gallery is currently managed by Fundación Los Carbonell / NG Art Gallery.

Why Constancy Reveres the power of a group of Cuban women artists who at some point in their careers chose to stand up in front of a classroom to share their skills and philosophies...

Fog

Niebla intends to evoke the pictorial language to understand the fleetingness of the gaze, what exists beyond a perception towards a habitual entity.

Havana, a palpable soul

Havana, a palpable soul is an exhibition that brings together a group of very young and emerging Cuban photographers in whose work we find not one, but many Havanas.
