Sextante Galería Gallery in Bogotá

Editorial Profile

Sextante Galería operates in Chapinero as the exhibition arm of Arte Dos Gráfico, a workshop and gallery structure whose identity is closely tied to graphic art, artist books, and long-term collaboration with Colombian and Latin American artists. Founded from a context of print production and experimentation, it occupies a distinctive position within contemporary art in Bogotá: not simply as a commercial gallery, but as a space where exhibition-making, publishing, and technical processes around image-making remain strongly connected. Its program brings together established and emerging artists, with a particular emphasis on works on paper, editions, drawing, painting, photography, and practices that move between material research and conceptual inquiry.

The gallery’s recent exhibition history reflects this hybrid profile. Projects such as Magic Eyes by Wendy Ewal, Línea de Agua by Diego Amaral, Invenciones by Rodrigo Trujillo, Microdosis by Alejandro Restrepo, and Pulsos del Río Bogotá by Alejandro Camacho and Fernando Cruz suggest a program attentive to visual experimentation, landscape, memory, and the material conditions of artistic production. Its artist list also situates the gallery within a broader Latin American field, including figures such as Luis Fernando Peláez, Hugo Zapata, Juan Manuel Echavarría, Santiago Parra, León Ferrari, Fernando de Szyszlo, and Powerpaola. Within the network of galleries in Bogotá, Sextante stands out for the continuity of its workshop-based model and for maintaining an accessible exhibition environment where collectors, artists, and wider publics encounter contemporary practice through a sustained culture of graphic production.
