Step through a narrow door into a compact, intensely curated 10 m² gallery in A Coruña and the city’s Atlantic air seems to follow you inside—salt and light framing black-and-white prints hung close enough to study the grain. The owner, photographer Alexander Castro, guides you through a menu-like presentation of images, each described as if it were a course to taste. A steaming cup of Galician coffee and local cookies punctuate the talk, then you move to the archive: vintage contact sheets, fashion work and advertising frames that map two decades of practice.

A Coruña is a working port with a deep maritime history—its Roman-era Tower of Hercules looms a short ride away—so the gallery’s aesthetic often leans toward coastal light, weathered textures and portraiture that responds to frequently changing skies. The experience doubles as a micro-lesson in analog print care, author prints and portrait posing: you’ll select two signed photographs to take home and step outside for a 15-minute portrait session with props and on-the-spot printing.
Practically speaking, plan for a private 2-hour slot, arrive with booking confirmation, and allow time to browse the archive. Mobility needs are accommodated and staff can assist with selections. Wear layers for quick outdoor portraits and avoid heavy fragrances that can interfere with scent-sensitive prints. This is an intimate cultural stop—ideal for travelers who prefer curated, hands-on art encounters over crowded museums.
The private session lasts approximately 2 hours, including time to explore the archive and a short 15-minute portrait shoot.
