The exhibition 'Retrospective of a Circus Photographer', by Manel Sala, gathers 25 years of photography dedicated to the circus world. The show can be visited at the Casino de l'Aliança del Poblenou, in Barcelona, with free admission. Ulls, as the photographer is known, has captured the essence of this universe, from classic circus to contemporary acts. Through his poetic and rigorous gaze, the images interweave movement, emotion, and risk in every moment. The retrospective travels through various circus settings, highlighting the artists' technique and soul. It is a celebration of Ulls' journey and an art form in constant transformation, an invitation to discover the discipline's richness and complexity.

Poblenou's cultural legacy, since 1869.

At Rambla del Poblenou 42, the Casino de l'Aliança del Poblenou stands as a cultural landmark in Sant Martí. Founded in 1869 as a recreational, social, and mutual aid entity, its current eclectic and neoclassical-inspired headquarters was completed in 1944, designed by Amadeu Llopart. Beyond its architectural merit, it's been a vital hub for neighborhood life, pioneering initiatives like the first private savings bank and local library. Its iconic Grand Hall, featuring a tilting auditorium floor and a cork ceiling for distinctive acoustics, hosts a program spanning theatre, dance, and music, cementing its role as a cultural driving force in Poblenou.
