C E R Ú L E O is a cultural management and exhibition curatorship project whose main goal is to promote and support the work of emerging artists. It functions as a platform that provides the tools needed to facilitate artistic creation and help spread the work of those who will shape the national art scene in the years to come.
In addition, we aim to foster a paradigm shift by breaking away from traditional art environments and revitalizing the contemporary art scene through the creation of innovative and current artistic experiences—where contemporary art leaves conventional exhibition spaces and begins to occupy more unexpected ones. In doing so, we seek to build a stronger and more meaningful connection between the artist, the work, and the public.

C E R Ú L E O began its journey in a post-pandemic context, a time marked by lockdowns, curfews, and the search for safe environments, which made it necessary to explore new exhibition models. The pandemic represented a complete break with everything that had come before 2020. There was no going back—renewal had become an urgent need.
In response to this need, C E R Ú L E O was born. Since its founding in 2021, the project has organized over twenty exhibitions and art shows featuring a range of artists, often in cities where the local art scene had become stagnant even before the pandemic—and where emerging artists had never found space, often forced to seek more welcoming environments elsewhere. In the capital, however, the avant-garde is thriving, making it a perfect ground for experimenting with new exhibition formats that can later be exported to other cities.
For many artists, this project has become a platform to amplify their voices and share their art with the world. Nearly twenty artists now form the core of C E R Ú L E O’s regular collaborators, while many others participate occasionally. Consciously or not, the project has consistently prioritized work by women artists—a group often more vulnerable within the emerging art community—who now represent 90% of the artists involved.
