In this exclusive interview, he shares his journey, vision, and why building a collaborative community is key to reshaping the future of art.
In 1999, Eduardo moved from Colombia to Miami, where he pursued an MBA while supporting Felipe Grimberg, a renowned art collector. Surrounded by works of Botero and Picasso, Eduardo discovered a calling that would later evolve into The Art Dome, a platform designed to empower artists beyond visibility.
The Art Dome was born out of necessity: too many emerging artists lacked mentorship, infrastructure, and networks. Eduardo envisioned an ecosystem of support—a place where visibility meets real-world tools for sustainable careers.
The Art Dome doesn’t just showcase art—it builds belonging. By fostering mentorship, offering resources, and creating shared opportunities, it transforms isolation into collaboration.
With no roadmap for an art incubator, Eduardo faced uncertainty. Yet, persistence and conviction in advocacy for artists kept him moving forward. The Art Dome became a pioneering model that challenges traditional systems and amplifies artist voices.
The Art Dome empowers emerging artists through mentorship, visibility, and community support.
By providing access to exhibitions, mentorship programs, networking, and global opportunities.
Eduardo envisions hubs in major U.S. cities and eventually worldwide, creating a global network of support.
One highlight for Eduardo was inviting an Art Dome artist to a prestigious gala for the first time. Witnessing their recognition and joy crystallized his belief: community is as vital as sales.
“Even if you haven’t had the sales yet, what you’ve created with us in building this community is a major accomplishment.” — Edgar Jiménez
collaboration in art.
Eduardo envisions hubs in cities like Miami, Houston, and Chicago—spaces where artists, curators, and communities meet. His dream: scale The Art Dome into a global movement for inclusivity and collaboration in art.
As a way to showcase our collection of artworks, we wanted to begin introducing the masters behind these pieces as our Artist of the Month. This allows us to take a closer look at the artworks in our collection and the fascinating people behind their creation.
We introduce The Art Dome Newsletter, a way to keep our community updated with news about The Art Dome and showcase our upcoming projects.
Every December, Miami becomes a global hub for art, design, and culture during Miami Art Week. The city fills with art fairs, exhibitions, and cultural events, offering our team a chance to experience firsthand the exciting energy that defines this world-class celebration.
