Gallery and exhibitions

This personal exhibition of the painter Arben Golemi this January of 2023 comes after the one entitled „Golden afternoon“, which was opened at the „Golemi Art Gallery“. A gallery that has already become a very favorite space for various artists who have exhibited works in painting. The painter Arben Golemi says that in the absence of a network of galleries in Tirana, these few galleries that exist are important for artistic activity. „Tirana does not have a network of art galleries. Without a network of galleries, even the state does not help you. We need to build a network of private galleries, where artists are identified and works are sold. Only the FAB gallery remains, the GKA is under reconstruction, but it has no duty to open our exhibitions. Like the whole world, we should have the exhibition hall of modern art, which should have been set up in Tirana“, says the painter. In the past year, various exhibitions have been opened in his gallery „Golemi Art Gallery“, but the painter Arben Golemi says that this year too, this gallery will have a series of exhibitions in the future. „My friends who are artists will definitely have their free exhibitions in this gallery,“ he says.
