Design dealer Cristina Grajales and Latin American art specialist Leon Tovar have joined hands in a new 6,000-square-foot loft exhibition space based in New York’s trendy NoMad (North of Madison Square Park). Each dealer has their own dedicated space and one joint space, “The Third Room”, to create projects and exhibitions that combine their expertise. Both Grajales and Tovar are Columbian: the great Latin American Modernists have a wonderful new platform with them. As we are also seeing art and design at the very highest level in fantastic dialogue at fairs (SALON and FOG to name just two), we can’t wait for this ethos to be translated into the gallery world.

Grajales and Tovar with Marisol Escobar’s sculptural depiction of Picasso c. 1977 seated in a chair. This piece evokes a blend of art and design that reflects the partners’ shared vision.
