The gallery was beautiful. The art was beautiful however, I was disgusted by the way my friend and I were treated by an older short woman who worked upstairs. I am a recording artist who is always looking for inspiration and at the time was looking for a venue for an event. After being told by the lovely receptionist that I could not book the gallery, she insisted that we tour the gallery. She took us upstairs to view more of the art and shortly after my friend and asked to use the restroom. The older short women(white with short orange hair) followed us into the bathroom to ask if we were “peeing”. I was on a private phone call and she asked what am I recording? I asked her is everything okay. She continued to ask us question and continued to follow us. She also rudely ask if I was even an artist. My friend and I walked into another part of the gallery to get away from her and she followed us again to watch us and then closed off another part of the gallery so we could not see it. We felt harassed and insulted so we went back downstairs and asked the receptionist is there a problem with us viewing the gallery, we also asked if people take tours normally, she told us no it was not a problem and that people tour normally. I am a young educated African American woman, and never had to deal that type of treatment in any public setting until now. This type of covert racism should be addressed. This woman in particular(short woman) should be coached on interpersonal skills, or she should be provided with a discrimination course. She is prejudice against certain types of people coming into her establishment. I would love to have a conversation with the owner of this gallery also. So in 2019, people are still simpleminded enough to judge someone based on the color of their skin and the way they look.
Art is one of the most subjective things out there so I wont really go into my opinion. But the art didnt really align with my interests or values. The exhibition was laid out well and the staff were very involved in discussion with me about the artwork and the artist, which I really enjoyed. But the installation wasn't for me. I'll come back when it is switched out. I'm sure it will be high quality as well.
One of the best galleries in Houston. Always has very interesting art and artists from or connect to Latin America. The staff are very friendly and kind,happy to show you around and explain about the art being shown. I really enjoy myself every time I go or take friends from out of town. The proximity to the menil is also a plus.
Primarily focused on modern and contemporary art from Latin America. This popular gallery is housed in a minimalist modern building that maximizes the showcase of their rich staple of rising and established art masters. Very knowledgeable and passionate staff, always willing to share with interested visitors.
Contemporary Latin Art, Sicardi is a personal favorite. It's one of the only places in the country to see this type of art in a museum quality setting in an art gallery. Easy to miss, it's a metal building across from the Menil and HCP, it's simply a must for tourists. I recommend all my friends to stop by.
The selection here is limited but the chosen works are stunning. The staff took the time to talk about the artists and things I should pay attention to. The only people is it's hard to know how to get in. The doors are locked even though they are open. I had to call from the parking lot to be let in.
Buyer beware- poor communication, unsubstantiated research and misrepresentation of contemporary Latin American art canon. Dealings with this gallery have been nothing short of unprofessional.
Excelente galeria, construction contemporanea. Muy buen programa de exhibición y muy buenos espacios. Completa biblioteca de arte. Espacio de referencia cultural en Houston.
Wonderful, unique artworks (mostly) from Latin/south America. Look for the works not currently displayed to get full view. Have William show you around. Great location.
one of my favorite abstract geometry gallery in the USA. Beautiful ample space. The staff is very helpful and incredibly professional. Highly recommended.
The best commercial art gallery in Houston. Their focus are contemporary Latin American artists. You will be blown away by the artists they represent.
Fue una bella experiencia. Un reencuentro con los grandes maestros del cinetismo!
