    (Translated by Google) Museum of unknown art of the tourist circuit, with an interesting collection made with a variety of artists, from the prestigious Vila Casas Foundation, in a building of good architecture designed by BAAS, by Jordi Badia. It is worth knowing.

    Mind bogglingly beautiful building gives way to a multiverse of spectacular art across two adjacent buildings. Worth going to check out the space regardless of what shows are on and the areas is cool, full of cafes and other nice art spaces. Whilst you’re in the area, be sure to check out La Platforma gallery too!

    Can Fremis is a beautiful medium-sized museum that focuses on Catalan art. I fell on it by mistake simply because my hotel was around the corner. I'm glad that I did. The exterior of the building is surrounded by a park that is made to look like a small urban forest. The building's modern architecture integrates elements of the past of Poblenou, chiefly an industrial brick chimney. The natural lighting inside the building is quite successfully carried out, enhancing the lighting used for the art, but never overwhelming it. I cannot leave without congratulating the curators, not just for the variety of styles available on view, but also for the way the artwork is displayed.

  • 5/5 Jason Patrick V. 5 years ago on Google
    The awesomest part of this museum was the actual architecture of the building. It was quiet for a Sunday afternoon but as i strolled the cement and glass hallways with my sweetheart by my side I discovered a few gems among the hundreds of works. There is definitely a sense of Catalonian pride. All of the artists are local and painting/sculpting for a Spanish audience. The bathrooms are gender neutral and you can get a decent espresso from a coin operated vending machine on the third floor. Worth the 7 euros (2 euros if you can prove that you are a professor or are on the dole).

    An excellent contemporary art museum, on 3 floors. 30 min walk from old town or get a bus. staff were very nice & they had a good brochure in english.the design museum is nearby if you want to do 2 museums together. The first photo shows a portrait of Frida Kahlo made from plastic bags.

    (Translated by Google) The Can Framis Museum, is located in the old factory that bears his name, and is the latest project of the Vila Casas Foundation, inaugurated in 2009. Some 300 paintings, sculptures and photographs have been exhibited since the decade from the sixties to the present, by artists born or resident in Catalonia. It has 3 floors and about 36 showrooms. I really enjoyed the visit (adult € 5) and enjoyed the various works of contemporary Catalan artists, as well as the exceptional building surrounded by a peculiar garden. Highly recommended. (Original) EL museu de Can Framis, està situat en l'antiga fàbrica que porta el seu nom, i és el darrer projecte de la Fundació Vila Casas inaugurat el 2009. S'exposen unes 300 obres de pintura, escultura i fotografia, des de la dècada dels anys seixanta fins a l'actualitat, d'artistes nascuts o residents a Catalunya. Té 3 plantes i unes 36 sales d'exposició. M'ha agradat molt la visita (adult 5 €) i he pogut gaudir de les diverses obres d'artistes catalans contemporanis, i també del excepcional edifici envoltat d'un jardí peculiar. Molt recomanable.

  • 5/5 Milos S. 4 years ago on Google
    Excellent modern art collection! Catalan and Spanish painting from 20th and 21st century, a private collection and a skillful selection of the exposed works. Very different styles are presented, collection is not imposing or favoring certain approach discriminating others, but one can fully enjoy pluralism and diversity of contemporary art. Endless freedom of creation and interpretation of the art based on personal sensibility are the greatest values of contemporary art, which separate it from the previous centuries, which were based more on restrictions and rules. Organization and design of the exposition and relationship between artworks is equally good. Personally, I enjoy this collection, much more then official modern art museum in Barcelona. Architecturally it´s a contextual re-conversion of the old textile factory and valuable public space designed by BAAS. Fundaciò Vila Casas has two more museums in Costa Brava (sculpture and photography) equally valuable and all three are wonderful gift wealthy family with artistic sensibility could give to the people.
