Joan Miró, Joana Vasconcelos, and Mallorcan votive offerings in a stately home where the doorknob is a woman's hand beckoning with an apple. 🌲

📍 Practical information

📅 September 1, 2026 – September 27, 2026

📍 Can Balaguer — Main floor

🎟️ Free admission

🌲 About the exhibition

This exhibition is located in a stately home where the doorknob is a woman's hand that knocks with an apple to enter; but where the life of trees and living beings may seem distant to us today.

They are often presented to us as images that glide across our screens with a newfound fragility that becomes untouchable. At the same time, our minds flicker with shadows we call climate anxiety, because within that distancing we also know that life outdoors defines our ability to live indoors.

The House and the Forest shines with that contemporary emotional climate, which comes and goes like hope and fear, desire, numbness, pain and joy, refracting through a historic domestic space: because today's home has a yesterday.

👩‍🎨 Artists

Rosa Caterina Bosch, Louise Hopkins, Ken Kiff, Jennifer Latour, Edward Lipski, Joan Miró, Asunción Molinos Gordo, Joana Vasconcelos, Mallorcan ex-votos and the curatorial artist Janice McNab.

Everything we build will return to where it came from. Or it will disappear as soon as we stop looking at it. A family workshop on the ephemeral. 🌿👨‍👩‍👧

📍 Practical information

📅 September 1, 2026 – September 30, 2026

📍 Can Balaguer

🎟️ Free activity with prior registration

🌿 The workshop

In nature, everything is ephemeral: the water flowing in the river, the air rustling through the branches, the clouds, the rain… Life itself. The human species, despite having inhabited the Earth for only a minuscule fraction of time, is the one that has brought about the greatest transformation, and not always for the better.

We often forget that everything we have we owe to Her, and that without Her it will be very difficult to survive. In this workshop, everything will also be ephemeral, because what we build will be returned to the place from which it came. Or it will simply disappear when we stop looking at it.

🖼️ Around The House and the Forest

The workshop visit accompanies the exhibition The House and the Forestwhich can be seen on the main floor of Can Balaguer until September 27.

✍️ Registrations

Activity designed for families and summer schools, with children aged 5 and up. Free registration at canbalaguer@palma.es.

What happens when contemporary art looks at traditional crafts? A constellation of practices that engage with the materials and landscapes that gave rise to them. 🎨

📍 Practical information

📅 September 1, 2026 – October 18, 2026

📍 Casal Solleric — Noble floor

🪡 About the exhibition

The project stems from the desire to review vernacular crafts and techniques from a contemporary perspective, in order to articulate a constellation of artistic practices that engage with the materials and landscapes that originate them.

Ceramics, plant fibers, textiles, and wood cease to be mere "crafts" and become a language. This is the second stop on a project that began in Valencia and, in Palma, incorporates names from the Balearic Islands.

👩‍🎨 Artists

Ana Laura Aláez, Isabel Servera, Adriana Meunié and Marta Font, already present at the first Valencian meeting, along with Teresa Matas, Tonina Crespí and Joan Pere Català Roig & Albert Pinya.

The other room incorporates all the museum exhibits from the Fryderyk Chopin Institute in Warsaw. Highlights include a large painting of the composer's final moments at the piano, a bronze replica of his hand, twelve original preludes, and portraits of the key figures.

🏰 The Bellver Castle

The exhibition can be visited in the Sales de la Capella, on the first floor of the 14th-century Gothic castle that overlooks the Bay of Palma and which today houses the Museu d'Història de la Ciutat.

What can a fresh perspective on the world's most photographed architecture offer? Nearly 70 black and white works by Aitor Ortiz. 📷

📍 Practical information

📅 September 1, 2026 – November 15, 2026

📍 Can Balaguer — Pilar Montaner Room

🎟️ Free admission

📷 About the exhibition

Photographing architecture, especially that of Antoni Gaudí, presents a particular challenge and an inevitable question: what can a new perspective bring to such photographed works?

Aitor Ortiz took on the challenge of photographing the architecture of the Catalan genius to explain something that had not been seen in the same way until now. He did not set out to find elements not yet photographed—perhaps impossible—but rather to observe them with austerity and detachment. Subtly, he also reveals the Gaudí who navigated between the artisanal traditions of the past and the technological modernity of his time, emphasizing the importance of his workshop-laboratory.

By eliminating the rhetoric of color and delving into the details, he discovers a Gaudí who is surprisingly current and modern for his time.

🖼️ The assembly

Nearly 70 small-scale, classically styled works, created using highly contemporary printing and mounting techniques. The exhibition is notable for its understated presence, making visual silence—as in the music of Frederic Mompou—the central element.

🏛️ Can Balaguer

Can Balaguer is a stately home in the center of Palma, of medieval origin and renovated in the Baroque period, which Josep Balaguer donated to the city. Today it is a municipal space that combines a permanent exhibition, temporary exhibitions, and cultural programming.

Solleric launches a program dedicated to recent art graduates. Rebeca Morey, born in Palma in 2004, kicks things off. 🎨

📍 Casal Solleric — Aljub

🎟️ Free admission

🎨 About the exhibition

Rebeca Morey Pérez (Palma, 2004) has just graduated from ADEMA Fine Arts. She acknowledges that her vocation and destiny have always been to dedicate herself to art: she remembers how she used paints to draw and plasticine to find shapes that she would recreate time and time again.

This educational commitment has led her to embark on an artistic adventure, and Casal Solleric is supporting her with the first installment of NousTalents, a program dedicated to giving initial institutional visibility to newly graduated artists from the Islands.

His pieces, made of ceramic material and with an almost organic presence, occupy the space of the Aljub, the old cistern of the palace converted into an exhibition hall.

Climb up to the terraces to see Palma from above: bay, bell tower, flying buttresses and rose window (guided tours in shifts)

If you are looking for a “wow” plan without leaving the center, this is one of the most special experiences: you tour the terraces of the Cathedral and see up close elements that are normally only appreciated from below (buttresses, rose windows, Gothic details), as well as brutal views of the bay and the city.

The visits are made in groups, with shifts every 30 minutes and lasting approximately 1 hour. 

✅ Why go
It is the typical plan that surprises even if you have already been to the Cathedral: it totally changes the perspective and feels very “Palma”. 

❌ To keep in mind
For security reasons, access is limited to people over 9 years old and it is not recommended if you have cardiorespiratory problems, vertigo or reduced mobility. 

📍 Data
When: Visits available between March and November
Hours: Monday to Friday 10:00–16:30 Saturdays 10:00–13:30
Duration: Approx. 1 hour (shifts every 30 min)
Tickets: €25 (includes Cathedral + terraces + Museum of Sacred Art)

Balearic Residents: FREE on Fridays (removing entry at the box office) · €8 Monday-Thursday and Saturday

"When I enter the forest, I don't hear the birds, but the heartbeat of the roots." Olive tree sculptures in the heart of Palma City Hall. 🌳

📍 Practical information

📅 September 15, 2026 – December 6, 2026

📍 Espai COR — Palma City Council

🎟️ Free admission

🕐 Schedule: Monday to Friday from 9 to 20.30 h · Saturdays from 9 to 19 h · Sundays from 10 to 19 h

🌳 About the exhibition

"Beneath my feet stretches an invisible network that shares water, nutrients, and memory. Nothing lives alone. The forest exists because each of its elements sustains the others in a silent and persistent balance."

The group of sculptures of Fabian Schalekamp (Palma, 1964) proposes to reconstruct that forest of our collective imagination in a transit space —the Espai COR, in the epicenter of the city— and to turn it, even if only for an instant, into a space for reflection.

Fires, deforestation, and the climate emergency speak to the disruption of this balance. Perhaps protecting the forest is not just about conserving trees, but about regaining awareness of our interdependence with everything around us. Artwork made of wild olive wood, dimensions vary.

🏛️ What is Espai COR

Espai COR is the art gallery that Palma City Council set up in the entrance hall of the municipal offices in Plaça de Cort. A passageway transformed into an exhibition space, with free admission and extended opening hours.

Acid green neon, a monumental inflatable sculpture in the courtyard, and the echo of a party that's already over. Or maybe not over yet. 💚🔊

📍 Practical information

📅 September 19, 2026 – January 7, 2027

📍 Casal Solleric — Pati, capsule del Born i façana

🎟️ Free admission

💚 About the exhibition

Club Miseria: The Last Beat is a new activation of the Club Miseria project, conceived by Bel Fullana and originally presented at Casal Solleric in 2019. That first version turned the room into a kind of synthetic, dysfunctional and acid club, imbued with sound, green neon lights, digital aesthetics, rave culture, humor and excess.

This new appearance doesn't reconstruct that club: it evokes it from another place, as a vestige, a sign, and its final heartbeat. The project unfolds through an archaeological capsule visible from the Born district, a light installation in acid green, and a monumental inflatable sculpture installed in the courtyard.

Throughout the exhibition period, the courtyard is traversed by a sound piece that transforms the installation into a desolate disco, a post-rave architecture in ruins inhabited by the reverberation of a party that has already passed or that perhaps has not yet ended.

🎧 Night of Art

During Nit de l'Art 2026, the courtyard is activated with two performative DJ sets by Virgen María and Oro Jondo, in a hybrid format between club and contemporary art, where the dance floor also appears as a political tool: a place to meet, occupy the space and generate other forms of community.

One of the world's foremost expanded-painting artists transforms La Llotja in Palma into an active field of colour and experience. 🎨

Katharina Grosse presents Arrels, a co-production between the Government of the Balearic Islands and Es Baluard Museu, curated by David Barro.

🎨 KATHARINA GROSSE. ARRELS

📅 28 May 2026 to 31 January 2027

📍 La Llotja, Palma

🎟️ General admission €8 · reduced €5.50 · free for under-12s, unemployed people and other groups

📖 The exhibition

Internationally recognised for her expansive practice, Grosse has redefined the field of painting for over three decades, taking it beyond the canvas into direct engagement with architecture, landscape and public space. She conceives the world as a space for painting: in «Arrels» she transforms La Llotja into an active field of experience, using colour as a force to unify disparate elements and generate multisensory immersion.

Grosse draws no distinction between painting, sculpture and architecture, nor between interior and exterior, viewer and participant. This intervention marks a particularly significant moment in her career: the site itself becomes a subject, responding to La Llotja's historical dimension as one of Palma's most iconic heritage spaces.

🏛️ At Es Baluard

La Llotja opens 10.30 am–1 pm and 4–9 pm (until 7 pm from November). General admission to Es Baluard covers the building, temporary exhibitions, the collection galleries, the Aljub and the upper terraces.

ℹ️ Museum hours: Tuesday to Saturday 10 am–8 pm, Sunday 10 am–3 pm, closed Mondays.

✨ Colour, architecture and memory made into experience in one of Palma's most iconic spaces.

Stitched paintings, unpredictable ceramics, and bronzes: three decades of sculpture by one of the most renowned artists of her time. 🎨

Ghada Amer presents Sculpture Since 1991 in Space A of Es Baluard, curated by Clara Garau and David Barro.

🎨 GHADA AMER. SCULPTURE SINCE 1991

📅 From September 18, 2026 to January 31, 2027

🕐 Opening: September 17, 7:00 p.m.

📍 Space A, Es Baluard, Palma

🎟️ General admission €8 · reduced €5.50 · free for children under 12, unemployed people and other groups

📖 The proposal

Born in Cairo and based in New York, Ghada Amer is known for her stitched paintings, where embroidering erotic images onto the canvas blurs the vision and directs the pleasure toward the thread rather than the subject. In her ceramic sculptures, as uncontrollable as they are liberating, and in her bronzes, she translates that same painterly impulse: every painted, embroidered, or sculpted nuance becomes relevant.

The exhibition brings together three decades of sculptural work, including fountains created in collaboration with the Mallorcan pottery workshop of Pere Coll and windbreaks that act as barriers, both protecting and framing the images. A transcultural perspective that transcends disciplines, genres, and territories.

🏛️ At Es Baluard

The main entrance of Es Baluard gives access to the building, the temporary exhibitions, the collection room, the Aljub and the upper terraces.

ℹ️ Museum opening hours: Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 to 20:00, Sunday from 10:00 to 15:00, closed on Mondays.

Through installation and sculpture, it explores the relationship between body, matter, and territory, in dialogue with the universe of Miró, folk knowledge, and the Mediterranean landscape.

His pieces create their own habitat in the Miró. They colonize Espai Zero and engage in dialogue both with the omnipresent spirit of Joan Miró and his work and with the space conceived to house his Foundation in Mallorca.

They expand as unique formations, both rocky and vegetal, in a symbiotic relationship that represents the figurative scenery of a cave: a shelter that houses two groups of works, the so-called Vetleria and the Alenades.

Alabaster, water, and light. A site-specific installation about the time from flow to sedimentation. 💡

📍 Practical information

📅 September 18, 2026 – March 28, 2027

📍 Fundació Miró Mallorca — Espai Cúbic

💡 About the exhibition

Jora is a site-specific installation that stems from the observation of light in the architectural environment of the Foundation. Pedro Torres focuses on specific elements, such as alabaster and water, and their interaction with light: materials that allude to the period of time between flow and sedimentation.

Miró observed his immediate natural surroundings and, from there, constructed a sculptural-pictorial language based on simple forms and colors. In Torres's case, this observation leads us to a much broader temporal dimension, bringing into the present a material past that continues to unfold.

In both cases, the observation of reality allows for a poetic transformation of materiality: Miró's quest to explore the physical sensation of color and its projection in space is the same one that guides Torres in this project.

Two immersive films about ecology and the intelligence of nature. One of them was shown at the Catalan Pavilion of the Venice Biennale. 🎬🌍

📍 Practical information

📅 September 18, 2026 – March 28, 2027

📍 Fundació Miró Mallorca — Auditori

🎬 About the exhibition

Carlos Casas presents two audiovisual projects that speak of the present by exploring ecology and the intelligence of nature: imagining ways of living in harmony with the world around us and highlighting the importance of diverse experiences, to give rise to new ways of understanding, feeling and relating to the world.

Two immersive films are projected: Cementery (2019) and Bestiari (2025), the latter curated by Filipa Ramos and produced by the Institut Ramon Llull, which was projected in the Catalan Pavilion during the 60th Venice Biennale.

Both films are rooted in the artistic tradition of documentary cinema: multi-layered visual and sound works that create environments capable of triggering new auditory experiences in the viewer, while fostering intercultural encounters.

Galicia lands in Palma with seafood, octopus, Albariño and plenty of reasons to arrive hungry. 🦞🐙

From 11 to 27 September, the touring food event MarisGalicia sets up its big marquee in Palma for more than two weeks devoted to Galician cooking and wine.

🦞 MARISGALICIA · GREAT SEAFOOD FESTIVAL

📅 11 to 27 September 2026

📍 Big marquee · Carrer Puerto Rico 15, next to Diario de Mallorca, Palma

🕐 Monday to Saturday: 13.00–16.30 and 20.00–23.00

🕐 Sundays: 13.00–16.30

🎟️ Free entry — food and drink paid separately

🐙 What to expect

The concept is simple: bring some of Galicia's most recognisable flavours under one roof, with seafood cooked throughout the day.

🐙 Traditional pulpo a feira, prepared by pulpeiros from O Carballiño

🦞 Lobster, langoustines, goose barnacles and more shellfish

🦐 Seafood rice dishes

🥟 Galician empanadas

🥖 Artisan Galician bread

🍷 Albariño, Ribeiro, Mencía and Godello wines

🎪 How it works

There is no ticket and no booking: you walk into the marquee, choose what you want to eat and drink, and pay for your order. It is a food-fair format, with long shared tables and a festive atmosphere, rather than a conventional restaurant.

MarisGalicia tours Spanish cities each year taking Galician cuisine beyond Galicia, and Palma is one of its longest stops of the season.

ℹ️ Good to know: peak times are weekend lunchtimes and Friday and Saturday evenings. For larger groups or a quieter table, come midweek or right as it opens.

✨ Come hungry: this is basically a short trip to Galicia without leaving Palma.
