Esquina, the nonconformist gallery & atelier that was born in Mouraria, has its doors open to all artists looking for a place to create. It is a collaborative atelier that stimulates the fertile process and hosts several resident artists.
The space is divided into three studios – one open space for working and creating, one for all the tools such as a screen-printing and a light table, and the other was transformed into a photo lab.
Esquina essentially aims to be a meeting point to collaborate, stimulate, create and support art and culture in Lisbon. It is located in Lisbon, in the Travessa da Madalena, around the corner of Rua da Madalena & samesame.
Not only is it a working space but it’s also an open-door gallery that hosts monthly exhibitions and workshops.
