In the ABC’s of Arde Gallery, we highlight YAM Gallery, a contemporary art space in San Miguel de Allende founded in 2010 by Adolfo Caballero and Marie Moébius. Located in the historic Instituto Allende, it offers a unique setting for showcasing photography, painting, sculpture, and installation, with a focus on artistic residencies and international collaborations. We also feature the Yosegi technique, a traditional Japanese marquetry that creates intricate geometric patterns in wood, as seen in the vibrant tables by Daniel Romero.
