The gallery has accomplished a professional work to enforce and promote contemporary art. Moreover, the gallery made the promotion of Moroccan artists abroad one of its main objectives.
L‘Atelier 21 art gallery contributes to the 1:54 art fair in order to acknowledge the value of Moroccan artists in the making of an African art scene.

By organizing a solo show, L’Atelier 21 art gallery aims to show the particular place that artist Safaa Erruas occupies in the African continent. In this exhibit, Safaa carries on the path that she has built for more than 20 years - a universe dominated by the color white where fragility and strength engage in a merciless battle.
