Carrer del Comerc, 28 (Commerce Street), Barcelona

Picasso's final studio in Barcelona was graciously lent to him by Catalan sculptor Pau Gargallo, known for his involvement in the decoration of numerous astounding modernist projects throughout the city. The same building housed the studio of painter Isidre Nonell, who would influence Picasso's work not so much with regard to style, but rather with thematic and conceptual affinity. Picasso occupied this studio until his permanent departure to Paris in April 1904, marking the end of his time in Barcelona.

Tip:
Located at No. 36 of the same street, you'll discover the community center named Centre Cívic Convent de Sant Agustí, which plays a pivotal role in driving positive changes within the neighborhood and is housed within the renovated Convent de Sant Agustí. With its 13th-century cloister serving as a remarkable performance venue, the convent is complemented by a diverse cultural program that includes workshops, concerts, and a special emphasis on electronic and experimental music and art. Additionally, be sure not to overlook the outstanding convent café.
