Mario Mauroner Contemporary Art SALZBURG was founded in 1972 by Mario & Waltraud Mauroner (at the time the gallery was still named Galerie Academia). After 45 years of international experience and realization of more than 600 exhibitions and participation in international art fairs, e.g. ARCO, BASEL, BRUSSELS, COLOGNE, DUBAI, FIAC – in 2004 – an additional 700sqm exhibition space on two levels was opened in Vienna, offering spectacular room for the presentation of large-scale sculpture – one of the main focuses of the gallery. Building a second point of interest, the gallery’s program is also dedicated to a range of outstanding and international contemporary artists especially from the Mediterranean area, whose common ground is a steady progression of their respective creative work, developed independently of current trends. Aside from the Ground Floor and Basement galleries, the newest edition of Mario Mauroner Contemporary Art VIENNA is our Room Number One, which is exclusively dedicated to young emerging artists. As a next step will be opened additional AAA - (All About Art) specially dedicated to Design objects created by international artists.
