Situated in the heart of La Condesa, considered one of Mexico City’s creative hubs, the gallery comprises various exhibition spaces on two floors, including a garden. In addition to its rotating exhibition program, the new venue will also host artist residencies. According to Dr. Krawinkel, “Solo and group shows, artist talks, performances, and community events will enrich the gallery's calendar throughout the year. We already work closely with artists based in Mexico and want to expand our engagement with the country’s cultural landscape in the future.”

KÖNIG MEXICO CITY’s program will present solo shows by emerging as well as established artists from inside and outside the gallery’s roster, alongside group exhibitions. The new gallery will deepen relationships with the local art scene, establishing an innovative space for contemporary art for collectors, curators, artists, and the public alike. Mexico City has become one of the thriving centers for contemporary art and KÖNIG MEXICO CITY will contribute with interdisciplinary and concept-oriented artistic positions.
