Jecza Gallery

Jecza Gallery, founded in Timisoara, Romania, in 2013 had from the outset a strong propensity for the local historical scene, very important in the 60s and 70s (the Sigma group among others). It represents artists and artist collectives, historical figures but also young and prominent personalities with a special interest in contemporary sculpture and experimental art forms. Through curated juxtapositions of artists of different generations, the gallery encourages in-depth research projects related to various art practices.

Alongside an art foundation and publishing house founded in 2001, the gallery has become a strong research center for the heritage of modern and contemporary art in Eastern Europe.
