"Madrid has long been celebrated as a sanctuary for the Old Masters, a city where works by Picasso, Goya, and Bosch are revered in world-class museums. Yet over the past decade, the Spanish capital has been reshaping its artistic identity, carving out space in the global conversation around contemporary art. The latest - and perhaps most ambitious - development in this evolution is SOLO CSV, a new arts and culture space from the internationally renowned Madrileño project, SOLO."
"Situated near the serene greenery of Parque del Oeste, SOLO CSV marks a bold new chapter for the Ana Gervás and David Cantolla-led collection. The venue opened its doors in June, welcoming visitors into its first exhibition with Australian artist William Mackinnon at Bowman Hal, the purpose-built gallery within the space. Today, guests can experience Aaron Johnson's cosmic, colorful WE ALL SHINE ON, a show that reflects the kind of daring programming CSV aims to bring to Madrid's art audience."
SOLO CSV occupies a 4,000-square-meter former printworks near Parque del Oeste as a new arts and culture venue from the SOLO project led by Ana Gervás and David Cantolla. The venue opened in June with a first exhibition by Australian artist William Mackinnon in the purpose-built Bowman Hal and currently presents Aaron Johnson's cosmic, colorful WE ALL SHINE ON. Estudio Herreros led the redesign, creating an "art labyrinth" that encourages exploration rather than linear navigation. The design abandons a strict white-cube format in favor of interior-exterior transitions, unexpected vantage points, paned-window glimpses, and a layout that blurs public and private.
