Mariane Ibrahim new gallery is in Mexico City at Río Pánuco 36.
Mariane Ibrahim is in Mexico City. Her new gallery, at Río Pánuco 36, welcomes us into a space with a romantic Porfiriato façade, located in the Cuauhtemoc neighborhood of the Mexican capital. The large property—her third gallery—combines refined French moldings, eclecticism, and a touch of tropical greenery.
I think art has to revolutionize and sometimes disturb, but art is also an exercise in contemplation—it should allow an escape, create a projection, and seek an aspiration about beauty. The great classical artists succeeded in sublimating reality. Art that is very reactionary or uncomfortable is not incompatible with the other type. Eventually, it can revolutionize the customs of society while inviting contemplation and beauty. For me, beauty is revolutionary.
As was the case in Paris, the gallery at Pánuco 36 went through a period of transition. We took up the spirit of the former owner, because before, an artist lived here and had his studio; then it was a shared office space. Ultimately, we took back that artistic character.
