A Gallery & Auction House Specializing in Impressionist, Modern and Post-War Art
Rooted in Spain,
Active Worldwide
Aurora & Athena was founded in 2024 in Alicante, Spain, with a simple goal: to create a trusted place for collectors to discover and acquire remarkable works of art.
After making Alicante home in 2022, the founders—drawing on many years in the international art world—decided it was time to bring their vision to life. They wanted to build something personal, professional, and globally connected.
In May 2025, we moved to Barcelona, continuing to grow in a city known for its deep artistic heritage and international spirit.
Our Showroom
in Central Barcelona
Located in the center of Barcelona, our showroom is where collectors can view artworks up close and speak with our team in person. We welcome visitors for private viewings, consultations, and preview events ahead of each auction.
Whether you’re an experienced buyer or just starting your journey with Aurora & Athena, our space offers a calm, personal setting to explore the works we proudly present.
We opened Aurora & Athena with the goal of redefining the art auction experience.
From day one, our focus has been on quality, transparency, and global accessibility.
Our first auction took place, featuring a tightly curated selection of 20th-century artworks.
The strong interest and participation from international collectors confirmed the strength of our vision.
Our second auction surpassed expectations, achieving record results and drawing attention from serious buyers across Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
This success firmly established us as a rising player in the global art market.
We relocated to Barcelona and opened our new showroom in the heart of the city.
This move marked a significant step in our growth, allowing us to welcome collectors in person and expand our exhibition capabilities.
We expanded our business with the opening of our gallery alongside our auction house.
This milestone allows us to offer collectors year-round access to carefully curated works through private sales, while continuing to host our international auctions.
