About

 

Andenken Gallery was started in Denver Colorado in 1997. 

From the beginning, our interest has always been progressive contemporary art.  It's a broad term admittedly, and taste based for sure.  

We've hosted +/- 200 shows since we began.  We've been blessed to show some of the best artists in Street Art, Skateboarding Culture, Graffuturism and Abstract Contemporary movements.  

We've had a lot of locations since starting the gallery.  Our first 4 spaces were in Denver, and then we had 5 spaces in Amsterdam...now we are on to our first space in Portugal, it's called 'The Holdout' and it's about an hour north of Lisbon in a little place called Areeiro, in the township of Alcobaça. 

In the spring of 2018, we purchased the land and old farm buildings that have now become The Holdout.  It's about 2 acres of land, with an apple orchard, a gallery space, and a visiting artist apartment and studio.

It's been a constant battle keeping our google maps location(s) up to date  but it looks like 'The Holdout' is set to be a truly permanent home for the gallery and a place for artists to enjoy short residencies.
