A local magazine for art lovers & art makers.
FrikiFish is an artist-driven creative magazine sharing stories, events and knowledge about creative culture and emerging talent in Barcelona and its area of influence. Its aim is to make meaningful connections through art.
At FrikiFish art thrives in all its forms—from large exhibitions at renowned museums to hidden gems in independent art spaces. Frikifish exists to support artists at every stage of their journey and help art-loving locals and visitors discover the city’s vibrant creative scene, including the ones that might otherwise stay off the radar.
This is a space to celebrate creativity, share stories, and support one another’s artistic adventures. In a world that often feels fragmented, finding a community that appreciates and understands us is a transformative experience.
Barcelona’s legacy of creativity continues to shine, even as mass tourism and commercial pressures loom large. FrikiFish is committed to sharing the city’s artistic soul without succumbing to the commodification of art. We don’t charge artists for interviews, directory listing or event features. It’s hard enough to try and make a living as an artist. Instead, we ask our community to please consider contributing with a one-time or monthly donation. Your support makes all the difference.
Art is meant to be shared, and FrikiFish is here to make that happen.
