Can Balaguer hosts a singular and contemplative photographic look at the iconic architecture of Antoni Gaudí. 🎨🏛️

In this temporary exhibition, photographer Aitor Ortiz offers a visual rereading of the Catalan architect, setting color aside to focus on pure structural forms and creative processes.

🎨 Aitor Ortiz - Gaudí. Impresiones íntimas

📅 From June 25 to November 15, 2026

🕐 Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 to 19:00; Sundays and holidays from 11:00 to 14:00

📍 Can Balaguer, Palma (c. de la Unió, 3)

🎟️ Free admission

📖 An austere gaze on iconic architecture

Photographing Antoni Gaudí's oeuvre poses a real challenge: bringing a fresh perspective to buildings that have been thoroughly documented worldwide. Rather than chasing unseen fragments, Ortiz approaches the structures with deliberate distance and sobriety. His vision highlights the interplay between artisan tradition and technical innovation, giving center stage to the workshop-laboratory as the birthplace of Gaudí's concepts.

By stripping away color rhetoric and zooming in on structural details, the images reveal an unexpectedly modern Gaudí while staying true to Ortiz's recognizable visual vocabulary, creating a balanced dialogue between architect and photographer.

🎨 Nearly 70 works in silent harmony

The exhibition features around 70 small-format, classical pieces produced through thoroughly contemporary printing and staging techniques. The installation cultivates an atmosphere of quiet presence reminiscent of Frederic Mompou's music, where visual silence becomes the main protagonist between images.

✨ An unmissable chance to rediscover Gaudí's universe through an intimate and subtle contemporary lens.

📷 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.

🎨 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.

🏛️ Casal Solleric

Casal Solleric is the contemporary art center of Palma City Council, housed in a Baroque palace on Passeig del Born. Its rooms—main floor, ground floor, mezzanine, the Aljub, and the courtyard—host exhibitions by local and international artists throughout the year.

🕐 Opening Hours: Tuesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. · Sundays and holidays from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

🎟️ Free admission

Casal Solleric hosts "Anatoformes", the first solo exhibition by emerging Palma artist Rebeca Morey Pérez. 🎨

Presented within Nit de l’Art as part of the Nous Talents 1 programme, this show stems from the collaboration between ADEMA Bellas Artes and Casal Solleric to promote fresh artistic visions.

📖 About the exhibition

"Anatoformes" offers an intuitive and visceral exploration of the anatomy and shapes of forms and objects. Rebeca Morey's body of work navigates between material presence and the constant tension between artistic creation and display.

Throughout this exploration, the body acts as the primary catalyst for the creative act. Working with malleable materials sensitive to direct friction with the hands and body, the artist reveals symbiotic shapes, both internal and external, reflecting remarkable maturity in defining her artistic voice.

🎨 Nous Talents 1 and Casal Solleric

Graduated with an excellence award from ADEMA Bellas Artes, Rebeca Morey Pérez (Palma, 2004) presents a distinctive personal perspective within the island's art scene.

The exhibition is part of Nous Talents 1, a collaborative initiative between Casal Solleric and ADEMA Bellas Artes designed to support young creative talent in Palma.

✨ A fantastic opportunity to discover the evocative sculptural vision of Rebeca Morey.

🏆 FesJajá, Mallorca's comedy festival

FesJajá celebrates its 17th edition in 2026 with more than fifty shows across October and November, in Palma and around the island. Stand-up, improv, sketches and comedians from Mallorca and beyond, at a festival named Best Non-Music Festival at the 2023 Iberian Festival Awards.

Most shows take place at Rívoli Aficine and Trui Teatre in Palma, with trips out to Son Amar (Palmanyola), Petra, Inca and Cala Millor.

ℹ️ Good to know: each show has its own age recommendation, from all ages to over-18s. Shows are in Spanish, except Irene Francolí's, which is in Catalan. Some are already sold out, so book early on the festival website.

✨ Almost two months of laughter all over the island. Pick your show at fesjaja.es.

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.
