Kate's Debut
Devon Almarinez
Founded in 2018 under the guidance of Sandra Loufi, our gallery embarked on a transformative journey. With our inaugural exhibitions, we endeavored to showcase international emerging artists alongside more established figures of Contemporary and Modern Art. Through the unwavering support of collectors, artists, supporters, and the dedicated gallery staff, this journey has grown and flourished over the years. Our expansion now encompasses three distinctive locations.
Within our artistic realm, we curate a diverse range of mediums, encompassing painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, photography, and video. Our aim is to nurture the connections that bridge emerging talents with more established artists, fostering a harmonious dialogue between different creative epochs. Our roster features over twenty international emerging artists. In parallel, we represent esteemed artists, each imprinting their unique essence onto our collective artistic narrative.
Since our inception, our unwavering commitment has been to offer foundations and art enthusiasts access to a meticulously curated selection of Modern and Contemporary artists. This commitment finds its expression in our thoughtfully designed exhibitions across all our locations and at art fairs. Yet, our role transcends that of mere curators; we stand as collaborators with collectors, aiding them in building extraordinary art collections. Furthermore, we take pride in facilitating special projects and the creation of large-scale, site-specific sculptures that enrich both public and private spaces. Our dedication remains unswerving: to bring the pinnacle of Modern and Contemporary artistic expression to our collectors with the highest levels of integrity and discernment.

Devon Almarinez approaches his work without a formula, creating each piece organically and impulsively; the vibrant, energetic colors of his work mirror his approach and technique. His unique design style combines splatter painting, screen-printing, squeegee art, and graphic design into an organized chaos, much like our technological, chaotic world.
He creates, documents and relives history. Almarinez is inspired by his life experiences. When he is drawn to something, he researches that subject. He digs into its history, like reading a book and then describing his take on what he has seen, heard and read.
