BienCuadrado
C/ d’Ataülf, 14
BienCuadrado is a creative space in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Since opening in 2016, the space has developed into one of the city’s most exciting and non-formulaic gallery spaces. More than just a gallery, BienCaudrado has organically evolved into a meeting point for artists and collectors through exhibitions, events and studio spaces. An ‘open door’ approach encourages visitors to engage with artists from idea to fully realised exhibitions. This dialogue makes for a unique and dynamic cultural energy.

Flash Gallery BCN
Av. de Mistral, 57
On the corner of Carrer d’Entença and Carrer Floridablanca, nestled between two unsuspecting businesses, lies Flash Gallery BCN; an intimate environment featuring exposed brick, wooden beams and floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Architect and Flash Gallery BCN founder and owner, David Correa has had a great deal of contact with working artists.

I am an American artist based in San Antonio, Texas. I have exhibited artwork nationally and internationally for 45 years.
I would like to explore the possibility of showing work in an alternative space in Barcelona. Travel is not a problem for me.
I would also like to explore the possibility of showing Barcelona artists in spaces in San Antonio. We have a very lively art scene
here, and I would be happy to start the conversation.
