Traveler reviews
Natalia Gómez
★★★★★7 months agoI saw a tiktok about an Expressionism Exhibit here and I'm so glad I went. It's free entry and the exhibit is great. Highly recommended!

★★★★★a year agoFundación Canal is a lovely gallery space: clean, quiet, and beautifully laid out for viewing exhibitions. I went for the Duane Michals photography exhibition and was pleasantly surprised to find English translations throughout, which made the experience even more accessible. The exhibit was thoughtful and well-curated, and the fact that entrance was free was a great plus. It’s definitely a spot to keep an eye on if you enjoy art exhibits in Madrid.
