Nagas gallery burst onto the scene in 2025 with a show of Leonor Fini drawings. Founder Ilian Rebei has carved out a unique niche as a young dealer dedicated to 20th-century Modernism and Surrealism. At NADA, he is offering a small solo presentation of work by the late Véronique Wirbel, who was born in France in 1950. She grew up across Africa and Latin America due to her father’s service in the colonial infantry, and her work is influenced by African ritual objects and pre-Columbian imagery. Rebei learned about Wirbel while studying Magie-Image, a fairly obscure group of Latin American Surrealists founded by Roberto Matta and based in Paris.
