Cruzes Canhoto – Arte Bruta, Primitiva, Popular

Lovely gallery with friendly staff! Absolutely was blown away by the paintings.

What an amazing gallery and lovely staff. The pieces were beautiful and the philosophy of showcasing outsider art is wonderful. Gallery is in a great area with independent shops, cafes and galleries.

Our favorite gallery in Portugal. Fantastic curating of works by deeply soulful artists. The owners (father son team) are a delight.

Great experience. Nice and interesting exhibition. Thr owner is doing this with a lot of passion and he is willing to explain it. He says it is art from artists who do it the way they like it and not to please the others or the society, not comercial art.

Fantastic gallery exhibitions and experience. Met 1 of the 2 people who run it and they were very welcoming and generous in explaining the purpose of the space. Also, they knew a lot about each artist which was cool. Would absolutely go back - wish we had this in my town.

Amazing gallery! have a chat with the owner and he'll explain the concept of the gallery and the artists represented there. You might also have the chance to meet one or more of the artists in person like I did and have them tell you a bit about their work. What an amazing experience!

VERY interesting gallery - with a different focus than most galleries. Owner Jose is a font of information - and so very kind. Truly worth seeing for yourself. The art street - Rua Bombarda is amazing - street art, quality galleries, lots of restaurants.

wonderful, eclectic outsider art, the owner and staff very knowledgeable and engaging. Well worth a visit. Fabulous works displayed from inspiring artists.

Owner Jose is great. Patiently told an showed us many art pieces and recommended us things around. Cheers from Tel Aviv.

Nicecely curated gallery of brut and expressionist art. Staff is friendly.

Very great gallery has diversified art pieces and friendly staff who introduce their collection very well

I just described this gallery as life changing. José Carlos is a genius. Do not miss it.

Amazing place, really enthusiastic owner

Excellent moment passé dans cette galerie. Non seulement la galerie est super bien aménagée mais en plus le responsable de l’endroit nous a fait une visite avec beaucoup de passion. Il a un excellent niveau de français! A refaire! Vous en sortirez avec un plus assurément ❤

Galeria única no mundo de arte outsider. O José Carlos Soares é um apaixonado pela temática e conhece a fundo o seu trabalho. Um tipo de arte que não tem nada a ver com a frigidez da maioria da arte contemporânea.

Notre passage dans cette galerie restera un grand moment de notre séjour à Porto voire au Portugal. Beaucoup d'artistes intéressants y sont exposés, la plupart d'entre eux ayant été "découverts" par le galeriste, un homme passionné (pas que par l'art brut, d'ailleurs) et passionnant. La politique de la galerie est de pratiquer des prix raisonnables, facilitant l'accès aux œuvres. Ceux qui ne peuvent se rendre à Porto auront plaisir à consulter le site internet de la galerie.

José Carlos nos recebeu maravilhosamente bem. Entramos sem pretensões e saímos com histórias pra contar. E para melhorar a visita, me apresentou a uma artista que pode ser parte da minha família!

Un lieu magique, José, un passionné qui parle de "ses" artistes comme s'ils étaient ses fils. Belle rencontre très enrichissante!

Superbe moment d'échange avec vous et merci de nous avoir fait partager votre culture sur les arts primitifs. Le masque de Podence de Lippe est magnifique. À très bientôt.
