March 2010 - June 2010
Location: La Caja Blanca, Palma de Mallorca 07001, Spain

La Caja Blanca is pleased to present Mitos Colom's second solo show.

Regina José Galindo
Solo Show in La Caja Blanca
20.09.2007 - 17.11.2007

Confesión
Nit de l'Art 2007
Galindo’s is first and foremost a performance artist who uses her own body to enact and denounce the themes which dominate her artistic discourse. Her work creates social and cultural memory by constructing fleeting moments of searing hyperreality where Audience no longer a passive observer, finds itself transformed into Witness… or Accomplice.

Noves Presències 2006
30.06.2006 - 26.08.2006

Noves Presències is a yearly initiative designed to identify talented artists (under 35 years of age) which have had little or no exposure within the commercial arts circuit, and give them a platform through which to present their work to the public within the context of a solo show held within selected private art galleries.

The project is funded by the Consell de Mallorca. The selection of artists and the exhibition of the work is carried out on a voluntary basis by galleries belonging to AIGAB, The Independent Association of Art Galleries of the Balearic Region.

Juul Jacobs
Solo Show in La Caja Blanca
19.05.2006 - 24.06.2006

Re-Evolution
Juul Jacobs will be exhibiting his extraordinary sculptures and installations at La Caja Blanca through till Saturday 24th June 2006. Under the title Re-Evolution, Juul explores hypothetical scenarios depicting the future of our species. The result is a freaky experiment, which looks colourful and funny on the surface, creepy and unsettling when you stop to consider the implications. What does this apparently naive exercise reveal about us?

La Caja Blanca
03.02.2006

La Caja Blanca nace con el objetivo de promocionar el trabajo de
artistas contemporáneos y emergentes de distintas culturas y
nacionalidades.
Este espacio y su razón de ser, empezaron a gestarse en el año 2003 bajo el nombre de Galería Portals, un centro cultural contemporáneo gestionado con colaboración institucional. El proyecto actual se concibe como galería de arte privada e independiente que centra su actividad en la promoción de las últimas propuestas plásticas de algunos de los artistas más
talentosos e innovadores que aparecen en el circuito artístico internacional.
