EL ESPACIO 23 INC

EL ESPACIO 23 INC operates as an institutional investor and endowment based in Miami, United States, managing $7 million in assets. Founded by collector and philanthropist Jorge M. Pérez, the entity is centered around the Jorge M. Pérez Collection, a Miami-based private collection dedicated primarily to contemporary art. Its investment focus and holdings include significant concentrations in African and African diasporic art, Latin American art and its diasporas, alongside works from the United States and selected European contexts. The organization operates out of a repurposed 28,000 square foot warehouse in Miami’s Allapattah neighborhood, functioning as a platform for dialogue, research, and exchange. Through its activities, the foundation places established and emerging artists in conversation to foster new readings of historical and contemporary practices. Beyond its collection, it supports its strategy through exhibitions, residencies, public programs, and publications, creating bridges across generations, geographies, and cultural contexts. The portfolio encompasses over 8,796 works by more than 2,689 artists.
