Galería OMR
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Galería OMR is a contemporary art gallery located in Mexico City.
Galería OMR was founded in 1983 by its principals Patricia Ortiz Monasterio and Jaime Riestra. The gallery is located in the Roma district which is now recognized as the leading art scene area in Mexico City.
The gallery represents emerging and established contemporary artists, and it is the exclusive representative of the estates Adolfo Riestra and Luis Ortiz Monasterio.
Since its beginning, Galería OMR has been a major influence on the arts in Mexico, showing avant-garde artist that have now become some of the referential points of the Mexican art scene.
Among the fairs in which the gallery participates are ARCO (Spain), Art Basel (Switzerland), Art Basel Miami (USA) and MACO (Mexico).
2003 was a turning point for the gallery; it started to renew itself by the leading direction of Montserrat Albores and currently by the direction of Pamela Echeverría. These changes generate a new platform for a younger demographic of artists and a new basis for the gallery structure.
