The gallery provides a space and thus becomes a bridge between commercial mediation and cultural contribution. They intend to build public relations in San Diego County and encouraging the dissemination of an artistic language. The result should be a strengthening of their artistic presence on both sides of the border resulting in a better projection of culture to an ever widening audience.
Emerging artist definition: artist who are emerging with new, fresh ideas. This is not about the age of the artists or the exposure they have had, but what art they are creating now and in the past three to five years. We think of these artists as emerging from the darkness into the light of the public view.
