This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Mohamed Racim Art Gallery” as art Gallery in Algiers. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as art Gallery in Algiers. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 9, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q136491190. Authority coordinates are 36.770, 3.055. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1963, 2019, 2023 and 2024.
A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
