Aninat Galería es una galería chilena de arte contemporáneo, fundada por Isabel Aninat, licenciada en Filosofía y Estética. En 1982, en el contexto de la dictadura de Pinochet, crea un espacio que tiene por objeto generar una plataforma de debate, comercialización, y reflexión crítica, entorno al arte contemporáneo y nuevos medios en Santiago de Chile.
La galería representa artistas establecidos y emergentes cuyas prácticas conceptuales están comprometidas en investigaciones relacionadas a las realidades sociales, políticos y problemáticas contingentes. A través de su programa anual, Aninat Galería, busca re descubrir y valorizar el trabajo de artistas históricos poco conocidos, que han cambiado paradigmas. Actualmente Galería Aninat es dirigida por Javiera García-Huidobro e Isabel Aninat.
La Galería cuenta con 3 espacios de exhibición;
Sala Principal: espacio flexible de 200mts2, que se proyecta a una terraza de 380mts
Gabinete: espacio de 8,5 mts. de longitud, destinado a exhibir documentos, proyectos no realizados y referentes de los artistas. Este espacio tiene por objetivo conectar al espectador al estudio y a los procesos creativos del artista. Es por ello que también se exhiben documentos que forman parte del proceso de investigación del proceso creativo.
Pieza Única: área para desarrollar un sola obra o proyecto específico. Espacio para la experimentación, desarrollado en colaboración con artistas, galerías, curadores e instituciones.
Aninat Galería expande los límites a través de lazos con importantes galerías internacionales, curadores, instituciones y coleccionistas. Nuestra galería tiene una larga trayectoria en ferias internacionales, donde ha podido gestionar importantes adquisiciones de los artistas que representa a instituciones relevantes.
Esta pagina web tiene el objeto proporcionar información de los artista que representa, es por ello que hemos incorporado algunos extractos de textos históricos que hacen referencia a los artistas.
Isabel Aninat, a Philosophy and Aesthetics graduate, was a university professor. In 1982, with the intention of “widening the circle”, she founded the Isabel Aninat Gallery in Santiago Chile, an exhibition space for debate and theoretical reflection. The gallery aims to diffuse, commercialize and project contemporary Chilean and Latin American art, maintaining a special focus on the consolidation of a group of Chilean artists, both locally and internationally.
Isabel Aninat formed her first gallery “Plástica 3” in 1982 with two partners. In 1986 she became independent and formed “Plástica Nueva”. By 1996, she had moved to a space that could comfortably accommodate various proposals of contemporary art: video, installations, multimedia and so on. At that time she adopted the definitive name “Galería Isabel Aninat”. This new place became a landmark in the Chilean art scene, encouraging the development of what is now a renowned visual arts circuit, formed by various galleries and cultural centers.
The gallery represents established and emerging artists whose conceptual practices are engaged in research related to contingent social, political and problematic realities. Through its annual program, Aninat Gallery, it seeks to rediscover and value the work of little-known historical artists, who have changed paradigms. Currently Aninat Gallery is directed by Javiera García-Huidobro and Isabel Aninat
The Isabel Aninat Gallery disposes of three exhibition spaces ;
Space 1: a flexible space for artists.that has 200mts2,
Cabinet: space of 8,5 meters. in length, intended to display documents, unrealized projects and references of artists. This space aims to move the viewer to the studio and the creative process of the artist. That is why documents that are part of the research process of the creative process are also displayed.
Unique Piece: area to develop a single work or specific project. Space for experimentation, developed in collaboration with artists, galleries, curators, and institutions.
Aninat Galería expands the boundaries through links with major international galleries, curators, institutions, and collectors. Our gallery has a long history in international fairs, where it has been able to manage important acquisitions of artists representing relevant institutions.
This website is also dedicated to provide information on the artists it represents, that is why we have incorporated some extracts from historical texts that refer to the artists.
