Descripción de la Organización

Encounter was founded by Alexander Caspari in 2014. The gallery curates academically rigorous and immersive exhibitions, working with a core group of leading emerging and established international contemporary artists. In 2022, Encounter launched a new gallery space in Lisbon. The gallery, comprised of seven exhibition rooms, two viewing rooms and a sculpture garden, is located in a large 19th Century apartment on Rua de São Bernardo next to Jardim da Estrela and The British Embassy. Since its inception, Encounter has focused on building dynamic relationships with both new and established collectors, institutions and foundations, who are dedicated to supporting diverse contemporary art practices. Artists’ the gallery represents have been exhibited at and collected by important institutions internationally including; Tate Modern, The British Museum, V&A, The Royal Academy, The Getty Villa, La MEP, Palais de Tokyo and Kettle’s Yard. The gallery is committed to exploring the role of artist and curator outside the gallery walls. This has resulted in numerous installations and commissions in the public realm, both in the UK and globally. In 2017, extending the gallery’s London program, Encounter was appointed to curate the contemporary sculpture program of Smithson Plaza, St James's, building on an important legacy of Post-War and Contemporary sculpture at this iconic architectural site.
