Know before you go
Hi, I'm Eve. Here are a few practical things to know before exploring Ehrhardt Flórez Gallery.
- Visit Tuesday through Friday when the gallery maintains full hours (11 AM to 7 PM). Saturday hours are limited to 11 AM to 2 PM, and the gallery is closed Sunday and Monday, so plan accordingly.

- The Centro location makes this an ideal addition to a broader art walk through Madrid. Combine it with nearby galleries, museums, and cultural sites for a full day of artistic exploration.
- If you're interested in contemporary Spanish art or emerging artists, ask the staff for recommendations. Their curatorial perspective often leads to discovering work that resonates with individual interests.
