Sandwich (2017) is a collective-run gallery that strongly benefits from its all-inclusive view on the art world. Having started by using the hidden potential of a residual space in-between two utilitarian buildings (11sqm), Sandwich is confident that any restraint is a resource for finding the ultimate solution. Since beginning, the gallery has been challenging the definition of the art-space, as active environment and engaged instigator of the art world. Alongside exhibitions, Sandwich has triggered art events and performances in which the public is centre-stage and has been at the core of projects for the strengthening of the Romania’s art community.
Alongside its representational program, Sandwich is focused on producing site-specific works by both Romanian and international artists: Abraham Cruzvillegas (MX), Mike Nelson (UK), Anaiis Touchot (FR), Dan Perjovschi (RO), Liliana Basarab (RO), Anetta Mona Chișa (RO/SK), Diana Khalilova (UA), Jin Ningning (CN), Martin Zet (CZ), Jorge Peris (SP) & more.
Sandwich took part in LISTE Art Fair Basel (2019, 2020, 2021, 2022), ART021 Shanghai (2019), Feria Material Mexico City (2022), Viennacontemporary (2022) and Artissima (2022).
Since 2018, Sandwich has been building a strong relationship with the art community in Beijing, through exchanges and mutual support with CLC Gallery Venture, and formerly with C5 Art Space.
Sandwich is run by artists Alexandru Niculescu, Daniela Palimariu and Cristian Raduta and was co-founded together with Silviu Lixandru. Since 2022, Maria Birsan is working with us as gallery director.
