Terranova
The cult bookshop for art-lovers
Located at 99 Calle Comte Borrell, 6 blocks from Casa Batlló, the Terranova Bookshop is a cultural oasis in the heart of Barcelona. Opened by Lucía Boned and Luis Cerveró in October 2021, this architectural gem revives the splendour of a former 19th-century Modernista shoe shop, preserving its original windows and shelves. The bookshop stands out for its focus on art books, offering a carefully chosen selection of national and international works, some of which are genuine curiosities not found even in museum bookshops.
Terranova : Bookshop and art gallery
Terranova transcends the traditional idea of a bookshop by integrating a small art gallery into its premises - the window on the left as you enter - dedicated to exhibiting works by local artists and craftspeople, ranging from sculptures to ceramics and furniture, in a space of just one square metre. This commitment to local creativity allows visitors to discover and appreciate emerging talent in an intimate, personalised format. Terranova also organises monographic exhibitions and presentations of limited edition artists' books and prints. This approach has transformed Terranova not just into a retail outlet, but into a true cultural meeting place, showcasing projects such as José Quintanar's 'Dutch Landscape 13', which explores the intersection between comics, artists' books, hand-drawing and architecture.
With its unique combination of bookshop, art gallery and exhibition space, Terranova is a bastion of culture in Barcelona. It invites you to lose yourself between its shelves, discover unique works and take part in its vibrant calendar of cultural events. Without doubt, a must for those in search of inspiration and beauty.
