What is this?

Immerse yourself in the essence of Moroccan contemporary art with a private, curator-guided tour at Comptoir des Mines Galerie. This exclusive experience takes place in an iconic Art Deco building from the 1930s, where you're warmly welcomed by the curator and given private access to explore the galleries. As you walk through the space, the curator shares the rich history of the building and the gallery’s evolution. The curator will lead you through a series of exhibitions, offering insight into the artists’ works, techniques, and messages. Each room—including former apartments and a spacious hangar—blends contemporary art with historical character. Interactive and informative, the tour invites questions and discussion, offering a deep dive into the artistic, cultural, and historical layers of Moroccan art. The experience concludes with tea and refreshments, creating space for deeper conversation with the curators and time to browse the gallery’s selection of books and art catalogs.

The Comptoir des Mines Galerie, led by Hicham Daoudi, is a vital hub for contemporary art in Morocco’s evolving art scene. You’ll see how the country’s artistic identity has grown—carrying forward traditional craftsmanship while embracing bold modern expressions shaped by its shifting cultural landscape. Guided by passionate curators, you’ll explore the current exhibition and learn how local artists are making their mark. Through open dialogue with the curatorial team, you’ll gain insight into both the work and the wider context. As you move through the gallery’s diverse spaces, you’ll engage with the work of major figures in Moroccan art and the themes shaping today’s creative landscape. You’ll also gain a sense of how the gallery supports emerging voices and connects North African talent with global audiences. This is an essential experience for art lovers and cultural enthusiasts—reflective, interactive, and rooted in the creative pulse of Morocco.
