  This is perhaps the most exceptional gallery in Bucharest. Here are my reasons why: It is small and you can see what's inside from the street. This is a huge advantage as most galleries are behind barriers (doors, fees, corridors) which keep me out most of the time. Also I can only absorb a few pieces at a time and big places overwhelm me. Their selection is superb. They don't just show any old thing like most galleries I've seen in Romania, but the works are well curated. You can see what's on now in my photos. The owner is the real thing -- a real impresario, full of life and energy and enthusiasm (unlike the depressed attendants in mos galleries). They have a selfie mirror next to the gallery so we can have fun taking silly photos. Why are fun and art so often not connected? They have a stylised, rusty metal covering that looks great even when it covers the shop window. At night they leave the lights on and you can see inside. Smart move. Finally, it is located right next to the best shop in Bucharest -- the French Revolution, creator of the best eclairs in the world. Worth a detour.
