Established in 2008, Morán Morán focuses on exhibitions of contemporary art, representing emerging and mid-career artists as well as presenting historical material. Since its early years, the gallery has supported exploration and collaboration, inviting curators and artists to conceive exhibitions, performances, and happenings to expand programming beyond the traditional gallery model. These endeavors imprinted a freeform and experimental identity early on, as well as establishing a history of discovery, which serves as the gallery’s foundation. The gallery encourages all artists to experiment within their practice, offering the public to engage with work that is both accessible and rigorous, with a firm conviction toward inclusivity and diversity.
The accomplishments of our represented artists include consistent inclusion in all major global biennials and triennials, as well as receiving awards and recognitions such as Guggenheim Fellows; Rome Prize Fellows; Louis Comfort Tiffany Grant recipients; USA Rockefeller Fellows; Getty Research Institute Visiting Scholars; Radcliffe Institute Fellows; Heinz Award recipients; Mohn Award recipients; Ellsworth Kelly Awardees; Joan Mitchell Grantees; and several Rauschenberg Residents.
