Cordeiros Gallery is located in the Boavista area, in the city of Porto. It is integrated into an urban environment characteristic of this part of the city, known for its spacious areas and distinctive buildings.
A notable aspect of Cordeiros Gallery is that it is housed in the birthplace of Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen. This connection gives the space a particular cultural significance, uniting contemporary visual art with an important legacy of Portuguese literature.
The gallery specializes in modern and contemporary art. Its collection includes works by renowned artists, both Portuguese and Spanish, such as Júlio Resende, Antoni Tàpies, and Miquel Barceló, in addition to other relevant figures. This focus has been developed since its foundation in 1994.
Cordeiros Gallery is set within a house that, through its architecture, offers a distinct environment for art contemplation. Far from the configuration of a traditional exhibition space, the location provides a different experience for visitors, integrating the works into the ambiance of a historic house.
