CG Gallery Lloret Lloret de Mar

CG Gallery Lloret is the first photo gallery of Cape Group. Our aim is to make the art of photography, especially traditional photography printed on paper, accessible and understandable not only for experienced viewers, but also for beginners, adults and children. That is why we enrich our photo exhibition with interactive installations, music and sounds of nature.

In the children's area, you can put together a penguin puzzle, look through a real skylight at a penguin nest and take photos in our selfie area on board a boat.

Photo Exhibition about Antarctica “Penguins World” by Sergei Potetiunin

Would you like to immerse yourself in the magical world of Antarctica? A place where majestic icebergs parade before your eyes and legend has it that wishes quickly come true. We invite you to our gallery, where the landscapes of Antarctica come to life through the works of Siberian photographer Sergei Potetiunin.

Antarctica is a world apart, situated at the South Pole and separated from the rest of our civilization by the tumultuous Drake Passage. As you cross this passage, you enter a unique space: a realm of unspoiled nature, birds and animals, snow and clean air, serenity and divine beauty.

This universe, the work of the Creator, remains intact and without a trace of human beings, as it has always been: pure and unaltered! Peace and harmony reign in this crystal-clear air. Majestic whales gracefully display their powerful tails, seals rest in the summer sun on drifting ice blocks, birds fly carefree and, of course, the adorable and endearing penguins.

About me - Sergei Conta

I was born and raised in Omsk, Siberia. As a child, I played sports at a high level and suffered spinal injuries that prevented me from living a full life. At that time, it was not possible to solve this problem surgically, and I lived for almost 30 years in constant pain and limitations. At the age of 40, I got tired and decided to rebuild my body. Overcoming the pain, I started practicing yoga and oriental martial arts. Within a year, I fully recovered, regained excellent physical shape and was able to embark on a solo trip to the Himalayas.

With a friend, we travelled with a tent and heavy backpacks, visited many inaccessible monasteries, crossed the great Himalayan chain and its 5,200-metre-high passes several times, and conquered the summit of Stok Kangri (6,137 metres). My immersion in Buddhism profoundly influenced my worldview and my values.

With a background in electronic engineering, I have spent over 30 years developing my company, a market leader in electronic firefighting equipment and LED lighting. But my passion for travel and photography has always held an important place in my life.

We deeply love Lloret de Mar and we want to share our art with the inhabitants and visitors of our city. Welcome!
