Selma Feriani Gallery

A contemporary art gallery based between Tunis and London that supports the growing art infrastructure in Tunisia and North Africa, offering artists a global platform within a nurturing environment and with exceptional local and international curation. Established in 2013 in London and then in Sidi Bou Saïd, Tunis, Selma Feriani’s ongoing mission has been to seek out both emerging and established contemporary artists from the MENA region and beyond, supporting their long-term career development and facilitating their recognition financially, critically and historically. To date, the gallery has presented a progressive, politically and socially conscious programme, organising critically acclaimed exhibitions, installing public interventions internationally. Providing a platform for ongoing discourse between Europe and Africa, Selma Feriani’s aim is to create balanced opportunities for exploration, research and exchange between the two continents, for artists, professionals and the public. The gallery is behind the practice development of artists such as Maha Malluh, Nidhal Chamekh, Malek Gnaoui, M'barek Bouhchichi, Massinissa Selmani, Elena Damiani and Nicene Kossentini.
