Gala Berger

Gala Berger, born in Villa Gesell, Argentina in 1983, is a visual artist, activist, and curator who currently splits her time between Lima and Toronto. Her artistic practice is focused on fostering community engagement and creation. To this end, she has established multiple independent spaces in various Latin American cities where she has lived over the past years.

One of her most notable contributions is the founding of Casa MA [2018-2022], a community dedicated to promoting creative practices by diverse identities across Costa Rica, Central America, and its diaspora. Berger has also made significant contributions to the art scene in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where she co-founded the experimental museum La Ene (Nuevo Museo Energía Arte Contemporáneo 2010-2020) and the Paraguay Printed Art Fair. From 2012 to 2014, she directed two exhibition spaces called Immigrant and Urgent.
