There are many galleries located in the centre of Lviv. The ancient streets of the old city centre exude exotic charm and continue to draw artists like a magnet. Unfortunately, this phenomenon can be dangerous for both artists and gallery owners. Somewhat unconsciously, many of them fall under the spell of the surrounding 17^th – 18^th century streets and buildings, and this tends to limit certain expressions of individuality and creative fields of research.

The «Primus» Gallery is very conscious of these dangers and strives to convey a different ideology. Even though the gallery is located on Virmenska Street – «the Mecca of Descriptive Artists» – it has always adhered to and conducted its original artistic and creative policy.

The gallery opened on 1^st April, 2009. It has taken part in two gallery fairs in Kyiv, and has attracted artists who render the GENIUS LOCI («spirit of place») of many other towns or areas. The gallery aims to take part in the art community on a world-wide scale.

Free admission.
