Founded by the Barabani brothers, and directed by Esperanza Belda, Galerie MO11 was established with a clear ambition: to introduce a rigorous and international curatorial programme in Cannes that contributes to redefining the city’s contemporary art scene. The gallery’s mission focuses on supporting carefully selected emerging and mid-career artists, fostering their long-term development and creating a space for dialogue, experimentation, and critical exchange beyond purely commercial frameworks.

From this perspective, MO11 is conceived not only as an exhibition space, but as a meeting point where relationships are woven between artists, collectors, and institutions. Alongside this core focus, the gallery places particular emphasis on modern masters and on a carefully curated selection of works on paper by artists who shaped the cultural imagination of the Côte d’Azur. Figures such as Picasso, Matisse, Miró, and Chagall, among others, form part of an artistic heritage that continues to dialogue with contemporary creation, reinforcing the historical dimension of the MO11 project.
