Ivan Barrera★★★★★
The place is beautiful, nice architecture to admire, minimalistic touches and well organized gallery. Some artist are really good! You will find art pieces, sculptures, books and jewelry! Also there's a restaurant attached to the gallery so it's a perfect place to spend and invest time. Parking is easy.
