Montresso Art Foundation: Jardin Rouge

Montresso Art Foundation: 16 years of shaping contemporary art in Morocco and beyond

Founded in 2009 near Marrakech, the Montresso Art Foundation has been a pioneering force in supporting contemporary art in Morocco. Over the past 16 years, the foundation has fostered artistic creation through its renowned residency program, Jardin Rouge, exhibitions, and a growing collection of contemporary artworks.

Jardin Rouge serves as a creative laboratory where international artists can experiment, reflect, and produce new work in a collaborative setting. The foundation's commitment to promoting diverse artistic voices has established it as a key player in the cultural landscape of Morocco and beyond.

This book, published on the occasion of both the Foundation’s 16th anniversary and the 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair in Marrakech, documents its journey and contributions to the contemporary art scene. Through a comprehensive timeline and curated selections, the book offers an in-depth look at the foundation's impact and the artists it has supported.
