  • 5/5 LOISA F. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Gallery of contemporary art, BRUTAL, graffiti, street and urban art, representing the many different styles, art forms that are seen ..., representing many anonymous artists (I would say?!) ... As an art lover , and especially street art, an inveterate lover of graffiti in particular, and art that improves a wall and does not spoil it, hopefully have many successes, and many more rooms will appear like these in my avant-garde and cosmopolitan Barcelona. (Original) Galeria de arte contemporanea, BRUTAL, graffitis, arte callejero y urbano, representando a los muchos y diferentes estilos, formas del arte que se ven..., representando a muchos artistas anónimos (diria yo ?!)...Como amante del arte, y en especial de arte de la calle, adoradora empedernida de los graffitis en especial, y del arte que mejora una pared y no la estropea, ojala tengan muchos exitos, y aparezcan muchas más salas como estas en mi vanguardista y cosmopolita Barcelona.

    Randomly popped into this shop and was greeted by Robert. He took his time and showed around the place and went into detail about the artists and their pieces... what an awesome experience and what a great space to create. Unreal display of local and well known artists. All original works. Definitely worth checking this place out if your into the graffiti scene... vibrant wild out there creative minds... as well as contemporary. Just go.

    I am a huge fan of murals. I chase them everywhere I go. Today, I was strolling around Barcelona when I came upon this amazing galleria filled only with mural artists. The lady that welcomed me was very friendly and knowledgeable about Barcelona mural artists. As a matter of fact, she's one of them and does wonderful work. Her name is Ivana Flores. She paints these innocent little girls surrounded by cute animals and eyes (?) She was kind enough to allow me to stroll through studio down below. Anyway, I loved the gallery and highly recommend you visit it next time you visit Barcelona. Maybe you can afford to buy one of these exciting works. Too many great paintings to show here. You'll just have to come and take a look by yourself. Hasta luego!

    Well worth a stop to view the gallery and speak to the owner. He does a great job of telling the artists stories and is very passionate about the work. Very generous with his time and expertise. Lots of events and a community vibe.

    The gallery is a must add to any trip to Barcelona. I spent over an hour talking to the owner who spent time with me answering questions and just chopping it up. If you want to really get a true feel for Barcelona life and stay off the tourist trap please stop in. I loved my time there so much that i ended up buying a piece. Great artists great gallery owner and wonderful experience cant go wrong at all showing support.

  • 5/5 Julyana S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I have had an unforgettable noon here, and Ivana, Francisco, Robert and another artist's work made me very memorable! In particular, one of Ivana's works is about a girl with a gauze on her right eye. It reminds me of the good-hearted medical care lady in Hong Kong who has a bag bomb in her eyes! I also pray for Francisco's art exhibition in Shenzhen! I really recommend everyone to visit this gallery! There will be unexpected gains! I spent an unforgettable hour in this gallery, the artists there, including Ivana, Francisco, Robertare are full of talent. One of the painting by Ivana is deeply impressed me, it is about a female warrior whose right eye was injured and was covered by Here in Hong Kong we have a kind-hearted female protestor, her right eye was shot by police. She has just interviewed by New York Times. # 5 demands and not 1 less!

  • 5/5 Dr T. 11 months ago on Google
    I visited the gallery several time…whenever I’m in BCN. The gallery has now been expanded to include a second large exhibition room, there is so much to discover. Robert, the owner, takes an incredible amount of time and it was an awesome pleasure to spend time there. My work of art by Konair was packed so perfectly that I was able to take the flight home to Germany with it easily. And it’s amazing when you are walking through the streets, you will find a piece of his art on every corner. If you're looking for really cool street art, you've come to the right place. Thank you for Robert and his team. We keep in touch!

    Awesome gallery with top prized artists on view. The gallery's owner is a personable guy, a self described "urban archeologist" who mixes discarded street treasures with modern art. Well worth visiting.

    Simply an amazing artist studio. I love everything this studio has done and continues to do with supporting local artist, and bringing their truly epic out for others to enjoy! I cannot thank the curator enough for allowing my daughter and I to watch 2 of our favorite artists at work in the studios! A must see while on Barcelona! #honored #epicart #mustsee #art

    Exceptional art gallery with an incredibly kind owner who walked us through the space, and introduced us to a few of the artists who were working. He was very friendly and excited to share art with whomever walks through the doors without judgement or pressure. Such an awesome experience and so different than your typical modern-stuffy-gallery experience.

    This is a great Gallery and the staff is very helpful. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, and make sure to look around the whole gallery. I purchased a painting there and had it shipped back to the states with no issues. They represent some very unique artists and I am thankful to have stopped into the gallery while I was visiting Barcelona. I will definitely keep my eye out for future works here!

    If you want to see contemporary art by local artists then you must visit Base Elements. The owner, Robert, and the artists are present and will be happy to personally show you there various works and styles from street art to surreal art. We loved it all in both of their spaces. We loved it all!

  • 5/5 antonio l. 2 years ago on Google
    Best gallery in Barcelona! The mediums by some of the artist is just our style, skateboard decks to sculpture type pieces. They just moved into a space that is the perfect place to display some of the many amazing pieces they have. Robert took the time to give us a guided tour of the shop explaining all the art, really cool guy. Olga is so sweet and kind to us as well. Antonio SD

    A well lid and lively Art Gallery with a lot of funky and vivid stimulating Paintings, Printed Art and more, everything in the Range of 6000€ to couple hundred Euros. The Ambience feels like you would step into a different cosmos compared to the narrow streets that surround this gallery.

    Our NewEurope tour guide, Andy, brought us here and I'm so glad he did! What an incredible gallery with bright art and unique pieces. They had some AI interactive pieces that boggled the mind! We had our 6 month old baby with us who was smitten with all the colors.

    This is a highlight of contemporary urban art in Barcelona, definitely recommend a visit. The owner Robert is a great host, told us a great deal about modern street art in Barcelona, allowed my son to draw some cool stuff and showed around different works by different artists he hosts in the gallery.

    Beautiful urban art gallery in El Gòtic covering many styles and techniques, often with in-house artists working on their craft. Be sure to see downstairs as well and have a chat with the owner or the artists. Must see!

    (Translated by Google) A truly unique and magnificent gallery in the heart of Barcelona in the beautiful Gothic Quarter. The owner was very friendly and happy to tell about the artists. Although the exhibitions were changing, we were able to see the closed downstairs. A strong recommendation for anyone who owns a pair of eyes. -Finnish couple (Original) Todella uniikki ja upea galleria Barcelonan sydämessä kauniissa goottilaisessa korttelissa. Omistaja oli todella ystävällinen ja kertoi mielellään taitelijoista. Vaikka näyttelyt olivat vaihtumassa pääsimme katsomaan suljettua alakertaa. Vahva suositus kaikille ketkä omistavat silmäparin. -Finnish couple

    Wowww!! I wandered into this incredible gallery one day and was blown away by the vibrant and energetic art! Robert, the gallery owner, is a wonderful human being who supports local artists and is super helpful and generous with his time and knowledge of the art. I had so much fun checking out the gallery space, paintings and instainstallations and walked away with a fantastic little painting by Francisco de Pajaro. Thank you Robert for your great spirit. I highly recommend anyone interested in art to check out this gem of a gallery!

  • 5/5 Miguel S. 4 years ago on Google
    Wow!! What a hidden gem! Stumbled upon this art gallery on accident, and my mother and I are so happy we did. They have a lot of urban are which is cool. The gallery owner Robert is nice guy, we talked about the type of art he carries and he gave us all the background information on the artists.. But by far the best part was the basement.. The basement doubles as a studio for the artists that he showcases. The day we went he had an lovely lady named Ivana Flores, and she had some really amazing art work. I actually got to watch her work on one of her pieces. After talking with her we decided to purchase a nice piece of hers.. She was nice enough to stop in the middle of painting to chat with us about her work. After we made our purchase she took pictures with us. What a one of a kind experience! Plus the Robert pulled up a few chairs and just talked to us in the middle of the gallery.I felt like a made a new friend. If your ever in their area, you must stop bye and see what’s going on that day. You never know who will be there painting the next master piece of our time, plus you won’t regret it...

    The owner, Robert, was just so helpful, patient and attentive. He showed me all around the store, had stories for me and just made this more of an overall experience for me. Check this place out if you love street art. He has art from a lot of the local artists you see all over the walls of Barcelona. Definite worth going to, even if just to say hi to Robert!

    Visited Base Elements after taking a tour of street art in Barcelona and was pleased to be met by the superbly approachable and helpful owner of the gallery, Robert. Base Elements represents El Pez and Francisco de Pájaro (among others) and whilst I was there Francisco was signing and illustrating in his books. Ended up buying a piece to take back to London and am happy with my purchase! Thank you, Robert!

    Home of street art in Barcelona. Great place. The owner (Robert) is really helpful and you can both empty your bank account with some great high-end stuff or get away with something not that expensive. It offers really good opportunities. The basement itself is also really cool and you can really sense that a lot of "soul" has been put into the place.

    We stumbled upon this Gem, Base Elements, perusing the streets of Barcelona on a Fun Night Out. Robert, the owner of the Gallery, was so inviting and entertaining! The Hospitality here is so welcoming and genuine. They have the many very talented artists featured here, some of which we even got to meet. Awesome Art Work, there were so many pieces I wanted to buy! We love this place, so stop in for a quick visit, it’s a must if your visiting Barcelona Spain!

  • 5/5 James O. 9 months ago on Google
    I only had one day to tour Barcelona, and in researching chose Base Elements as one of the few locations to go—and am very glad that I did. Robert's an incredibly friendly and knowledgable host. He's created an artistically potent gallery that not only displays the work but the working spaces of local artists. Be sure and see the downstairs, complete with an artistic rendering of materials foraged from the streets—an "urban altar" that captures Barcelona itself. I very much look forward to a return visit in the future.

    We took a group of 16 year 8 students who are currently studying a Graffiti project in school. The students loved it! A really lovely space with a range of Urban Art including some installation work. Robert guided the group round the gallery and discussed the elements of the art, inspirations behind the work & information on the artist. Robert also discussed how the gallery supports local artists in providing a gallery space but also how the artists working day can be structured. We also went on a guided street tour where students used the interactive app. A very thought provoking and stimulating environment for young people. Would highly recommend.
