Contemporary Art Center of Galicia
The Contemporary Art Center of Galicia in Santiago de Compostela is a striking cultural landmark that blends modern creativity with thoughtful architectural design. Created by Álvaro Siza, its clean lines, open courtyards, and interplay of light and shadow make the building an artwork in itself. Inside, the centre hosts rotating exhibitions that highlight contemporary artistic expression from Galicia and beyond, ranging from painting and sculpture to photography, installation, and new media. Its spacious galleries encourage slow, reflective viewing, while the outdoor terraces offer peaceful views of the surrounding Bonaval Park. More than a museum, the centre serves as a dynamic platform for experimentation, dialogue, and cultural exchange, supporting emerging artists and fostering a deeper understanding of current artistic trends. It stands as one of Santiago’s most engaging spaces for those seeking a fresh, modern perspective within the city’s historic setting.
