ART27 - VISUAL ARTS PROMOTION
PUBLIC PRESS RELEASE 12/2025
Ferenc Donderer's project to establish a permanent Art Gallery in The Gambia in 2026 is an initiative of ART27 - VISUAL ARTS PROMOTION, which he founded in December 2024. While the gallery is not yet a standalone, permanent physical structure as of late 2025, the ART27 Group has been actively hosting temporary exhibitions and moving towards this goal. Key details about the project:
- Status in 2025/2026: The ART27 - Gallery is in the pipeline, ART27 is currently building its presence through online and offline means and organizing temporary exhibitions in existing spaces, such as the AFRICAN ART GALLERY inside the Senegambia Beach Hotel, the ALLIANCE FRANCAISE Banjul, Guest Houses & Hotels.
- Mission: The goal is to provide a clean, modern exhibition space for all kinds of visual artists & cultural events, independent of existing memberships or associations, to ensure that "ART HAS TO BE SEEN & ARTISTS SUPPORTED".
Art isn't just a hobby; it's a vital human activity that requires audiences (seeing) and resources (support) to thrive, offering benefits like mental well-being, social connection, empathy building, and driving social change by allowing expression, challenging norms, and creating community, making support crucial for its impact and survival.
- Operations: ART27 - VISUAL ARTS PROMOTION is a NON-PROFIT Initiative that aims to support Gambian/African Artists by covering material costs, transportation, and exhibition expenses.
- Collaboration: The project involves cooperation with the NCAC (National Centre for Arts and Culture), which has expressed a commitment to supporting the fine art industry and encouraging artists to work together.
The project is actively seeking supporters and navigating the necessary discussions to reach its goal of a dedicated gallery space in 2026.

"Big Things" are in the Pipeline..... Do we will see in 2026 our first own ART27 - ART GALLERY in The Gambia?
A clean modern place, worth the name "GALLERY", where all kind of Visual Artists can Exhibit their Art, independent of any Membership or Associations. Many points have to be discussed and evaluated, but hopefully with the help of some supporters and the good will of the NCAC we can reach our goal....
" ART HAS TO BE SEEN " and " ARTISTS NEED OUR ALL SUPPORT "
