Wonderful Art Gallery made by a Dane - (sometimes I feel proud of being a Dane myself). Wonderful Art pieces - especially paintings by local Essaouira Artists. Just sorry that the founder, Mr Damgaard was not to be found in the Gallery - but is living in Agadir !!!

Great place to wander around. Take a little while out of your day and go visit this gallery. Easy to find, full of interesting pieces.

The gallery is one of the focal points of art in Essaouira. Some say the art scene all started here. I doubt it. But the quality of the work on show is amazing. Very little is what might be called 'traditional Moroccan'. Naive, expressionist and sometimes just crazy. You gotta go there.

You will find a nice assemblage of good art from only local artists. The man in the gallery was welcoming and helpful. There was some pieces that used a technique similar to Jackson Pollock that were particularly good for a reasonable price. The sculptures were also quite compelling.
