Contemporary Art Exhibitions in Calheta, Madeira

At Alma Artista, contemporary art exhibitions are constantly evolving.

Different artists, different practices, all unfolding in Calheta, on Madeira Island.

Here, art doesn’t hang in silence. Alma Artista Gallery presents contemporary art exhibitions that breathe, converse and evolve. Between artists, place and current practices, this is a space where each exhibition invites curiosity — and, perhaps, encourages you to stay a little longer.

An evolving gallery space
