Simões de Assis Gallery

In 1984, Waldir Simões de Assis Filho founded Simões de Assis in Curitiba (Paraná, Brazil) with the deep desire to move and decentralize the production and circulation of art. Since its opening, Simões de Assis has directed its gaze towards modern and contemporary art, especially the Latin American production. Throughout decades of work, the gallery has focused on the preservation and diffusion of the estate of important artists such as Abraham Palatnik, Carmelo Arden Quin, Cícero Dias, Emanoel Araujo, Ione Saldanha, Miguel Bakun and Niobe Xandó, with the partnership of families and foundations responsible for them.
