Description

Information

This hall, specialised in contemporary photographic and audiovisual creation, is housed inside a very particular building: an old elevated water deposit with an eye-catching dome, constructed at the beginning of the 20th century by the Isabel II Canal in the district of Chamberi.

Noteworthy works and artists from the Spanish and international art scenes have exhibited here and it is one of the fixed venues of the PHotoEspaña photography festival. Furthermore, an exhibition of a great fashion designer is held each year, coinciding with the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid.
