IAGA Contemporary Art

IAGA Contemporary Art is a gallery established in 2014 in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The gallery, born from the entrepreneurial desire of a collector, Alberto Perobelli, and specializing in contemporary art, also includes a careful selection of works of modern art, to be understood as moments of reflection on the evolution of contemporary languages and places of comparison between the various artistic researches.

IAGA boasts a collection of original artworks by both emerging and established artists and usually organizes six exhibitions every year, under the management of Liviu Bulea, gallery manager. IAGA Contemporary Art makes it its mission to create connections between artists from all over Europe, as well as a network of artists, collectors, and art experts.

The gallery promotes artists from Romania, Italy, Poland, Moldova, and other countries, with a focus on young artists who are given the possibility to grow. Despite being a young gallery, IAGA is extremely active in the international art market, as demonstrated by numerous collaborations with art institutions and galleries worldwide and participation in international art fairs and events, among which are Bologna Artefiera, Art Athina, Art Market Budapest, Art Thessaloniki, and Art Brussels. It is worth mentioning the collaboration with renowned artist Hermann Nitsch, which resulted in a personal exhibition at the gallery’s own venue in 2017.

IAGA is a gallery born from a vision that is both a dream and a challenge: to create a new platform for the international art market and cultural exchange in Cluj-Napoca, Romania—a city rich in inspiration and a historical crossroads of art in the heart of Eastern Europe. The gallery fosters dynamic relationships between Italian and Eastern European artists.

IAGA Contemporary Art is not only a gallery—it is a laboratory, an exhibition space, and a hub of ideas and projects.
