Arde Gallery is one of the leading art spaces in San Miguel de Allende and a benchmark for contemporary art and design in the city. It offers an exclusive selection of works by some of the most representative contemporary artists, alongside high-quality design objects—textiles, furniture, jewelry, and lighting—by the most renowned designers of the moment. This is a space where artworks and design pieces coexist to suggest a way of living.

We promote the work of Mexican creatives and encourage the acquisition of collectible pieces with the intention of reducing ephemeral consumption. We advocate permanence—offering high-quality objects, top-level design, and a curated selection of artworks guided by thoughtful criteria.

With Arde Shop, this vision expands into a selection of collectible objects, small-format artworks, limited editions, and signature pieces. Accessible, transportable, and full of character, each item is an entry point into our world—thoughtfully designed for those who want to take a piece of Arde home.

Arde Gallery fosters the collection of exclusive works of art and design that enrich personal and cultural environments.
