Anthony Gofer’s Mirades Exhibition in Sant Joan Celebrates Ibiza’s Traditions and Cultural Identity

November 02, 2026

Art and Ibiza's cultural heritage come together in Mirades, an exhibition by Valencian artist Anthony Gofer currently on display at the Casa Parroquial in Sant Joan de Labritja.

Opened on 16 October 2026, the exhibition brings together more than a dozen paintings inspired by the island's traditions, folklore and cultural identity. The collection combines newly created works with selected pieces from the artist's previous exhibitions and will remain open to visitors until Sunday, 8 November.

A Painting Exhibition Inspired by Ibiza's Traditions

Through Mirades, Gofer offers his personal artistic interpretation of Ibiza's cultural roots, exploring the island's traditions and distinctive identity through painting.

The exhibition features more than ten newly produced works, alongside additional pieces from the artist's recent exhibition catalogue.

Although Gofer is also recognised for his work as a sculptor, this collection places acrylic painting at the centre of the exhibition. His use of colour and visual expression creates an artistic interpretation of the customs and cultural heritage that have shaped Ibiza.

The title Mirades, which translates as 'Looks' or 'Gazes', reflects the exhibition's focus on different perspectives of the island and its traditions.
