Galería Gaudí — Attraction in Madrid

¡Tened mucho cuidado con esta gente!

Me invitaron a participar en la feria de arte de Luxemburgo en LuxExpo The Box, poco menos que alabando mi obra como si fuera la de Picasso. Saben ilusionarte. Te venden la moto genial.

Realmente lo único que querían eran mis más de 1.000 € que les pagué para participar en dicha feria. No solo no se vendió ni una sola obra en todo el stand de Galería Gaudí durante toda la feria, sino que una vez te han cobrado ese dinero por participar, no les importa en absoluto ni tu obra, ni la técnica usada, ni tu persona ni nada. Ya han hecho el negocio contigo.

Y la impresión que daba aquello...apilan la obra de decenas de artistas en un espacio mínimo, pareciendo aquello un mercadillo barato del rastro. Obras muy por encima de la línea visual de los ojos, muy por debajo, apiladas y superjuntas, etc. Maximizando sus ingresos. Uno de los representantes de la galería andaba por el stand en pantalones cortos y camiseta, muy digno de feria de arte internacional en Luxemburgo. La dejadez de esta gente llega hasta el punto de ni siquiera traducir al inglés las etiquetas con la descripción de la técnica de las obras, dejándolas escritas en español (en Luxemburgo, donde tanta gente habla nuestro idioma). Cuando les pregunté sobre ello, pusieron cara de..."¿?" y ni contestaron ni hicieron nada por arreglarlo.

Es un negocio redondo para ellos. En cada feria de estas, en las que se aprovechan de la inocencia de artistas emergentes ilusionados, se sacarán más de 20.000€ porque invitan a participar a todos los pobre artistas que pueden, cruzándose luego Europa en una furgoneta llena con las obras apiladas para ahorrar todo lo posible.

No seas la próxima persona inocente en caer...emplea ese dineral en un buen viaje o cualquier otra cosa menos esto.

Be very careful with them!

They invited me to participate in the Luxembourg Art Fair at LuxExpo The Box, practically praising my work as if I were Picasso. They know how to get your hopes up. They sell you the dream perfectly.

All they really wanted was my more than €1,000, which I paid them to participate in the fair. Not only did not a single piece sell at the Galería Gaudí stand throughout the entire fair, but once they've charged you that money to participate, they absolutely don't care about your work, the technique used, you as a person, or anything else. They've already made their business deal with you.

And the impression the whole thing gave... they pile up the work of dozens of artists in a minimal space, making it look like a cheap flea market. Works were placed far above eye level, far below, piled up, and crammed together, etc. Maximizing their income. One of the gallery representatives was walking around the stand in shorts and a T-shirt, very dignified for an international art fair in Luxembourg. The sloppiness of these people goes so far as not even translating the labels with the works' technique descriptions into English, leaving them written in Spanish (in Luxembourg, where so many people speak our language). When I asked them about it, they made a face like... "???" and neither answered nor did anything to fix it.

It's a perfect business for them. At each of these fairs, where they take advantage of the innocence of hopeful emerging artists, they pocket over €20,000 because they invite every poor artist they can, and then cross Europe in a van full of piled-up artworks to save as much as possible.

Don't be the next innocent person to fall for this... spend that lump sum on a good trip or anything...

Tucked away in the charming Chamberí neighborhood, Galería Gaudí is a hidden gem for art lovers! This gallery, specializing in figurative art since the 1980s, offers a curated selection of contemporary and modern works from both Spanish and international artists. The space is intimate yet vibrant, with exhibitions that feel fresh and thought-provoking. I loved the mix of bold, expressive pieces and the warm, welcoming vibe of the gallery.Accessibility is a big plus—wheelchair-friendly entrance and restrooms make it inclusive. The staff was knowledgeable and happy to share insights about the artists, which added depth to my visit. Open weekdays 10 AM–2 PM and 5–9 PM, plus Saturday mornings, it’s easy to pop in. If you’re exploring Madrid’s art scene, this is a must-visit for something off the beaten path. Just a heads-up: no café on-site, but you’re steps away from great spots like...

I am incredibly grateful to Galeria Gaudí for their outstanding support and dedication. As an artist, being represented by such a professional and passionate team has been a wonderful experience. Galeria Gaudí not only showcases my work beautifully but also deeply values my artistic journey, as seen in the thoughtful biography feature they created for me on their website.

Their commitment to promoting artists and providing an inviting space for art lovers is truly inspiring. The gallery is well-curated, with an impressive selection of works from talented artists around the world. Every interaction with the team has been warm, professional, and supportive. Galeria Gaudí is more than a gallery; it’s a place where art and community come together in the most authentic way. Highly recommend for anyone looking to discover exceptional art and connect with passionate art...
