Founded by Pau Marinello in 2016, Contemporary Paintings is a gallery with a mission to bring people closer to art through the connection of artists and millions of art enthusiasts. We are passionate about helping artists make their practice as accessible as possible while upholding the high standards of the industry. Our goal is to showcase the talent and creativity of emerging artists, and to provide a platform for them to reach a wider audience.

Since
our inception, we have established ourselves as a global platform for
showcasing the most distinctive talent in the art world. In an often
competitive and exclusive industry, we have focused on identifying,
cultivating, and exposing works of art on a meritocratic basis. As a result, we
have successfully launched and advanced the careers of numerous important
contemporary artists, and remain committed to our guiding principles of equity,
innovation, and accessibility.

We
believe strongly in the impact of art: that it can transport you beyond
yourself and make you think and feel in more profound ways than almost
anything. Contemporary Paintings exists to help a new audience discover and own
works from outstanding artists, and our attitude towards anyone interested in
what we do is to always be open and approachable. We build meaningful
relationships with our collectors and prioritize their experience and trust
over selling a piece. By actively engaging with our growing audience of
millions worldwide, we hope to play a critical role in cultivating creative thought
and promoting the creative and visual arts as a valuable part of our society. Bringing people closer to Art is, and will continue to be, our core mission.
