Sommer Contemporary Art is now in its third decade of operation and has recently relocated to a vibrant new space in the Kiryat Hamelacha neighbourhood of Tel Aviv, an emerging hub for artists and creatives in the city.

This new space, formerly a Judaica factory, adds a unique historical touch to the gallery’s ambiance, creating an inspiring atmosphere that encourages site-specific exhibitions and special projects. Exhibitions in this space will continue to showcase a diverse mix of prominent local artists, emerging talents, and renowned international figures.

Since its founding in 1999, the gallery has been committed to promoting local artists, while also representing and exhibiting leading international artists. Distinguished by the meaningful relationships it builds with artists at every stage of their careers, Sommer Contemporary Art fosters an ongoing dialogue with various art institutions, leading to thought-provoking exhibitions in the gallery as well as in institutions, publications, and engaging talks with artists, curators and industry professionals.

In 2016, Sommer Contemporary Art expanded with the opening of Sommer Salon in Zurich. The gallery’s expansion through this intimate, salon-style venue continues to build sustainable relationships beyond borders and cultivate gatherings that facilitate cultural exchange, especially in alignment with the current challenging times.
