Discover the street art of Las Palmas with LOCK & Enjoy!<\/strong> Here we love street art for being such a genuine expression. Of all the cities in Spain, Las Palmas stands out for the different examples that you can see in its streets. These are pieces in which anonymous or known artists give free rein to their talent in a unique way. <\/p>\n

Discover the street art of Las Palmas with LOCK & Enjoy!<\/h2>\n

A visit to Las Palmas is much more than enjoying its gastronomy, landscape or architecture<\/strong>. You have to dedicate some time to contemplate the urban art, of which there are all kinds of examples. You only have to walk around the streets and neighborhoods of the city to find outstanding pieces. You won’t spend a single euro, and you will enter a fascinating world. <\/p>\n

Las Canteras Promenade<\/h3>\n

In this street you will find a work done with great skill by Diego Diem and CNFSN. It is the head of a surprised man<\/strong>, although half of his face is obscured. In addition, other pieces of urban art are waiting for you on the sides in which a series of letters are elongated. It’s quite a demonstration of what can be achieved with very simple instruments, but with an abundance of talent. <\/p>\n

Jos\u00e9 Mesa y L\u00f3pez Avenue<\/h3>\n

If you like the vindictive art with a touch of humor, in LOCK & enjoy!<\/strong> we propose this work. It is a defense of graffiti as an element of the cities<\/strong>. The drawing shows a dragon that is moving and has been adapted to fit the structure on which it has been painted. Being attached to a staircase, the animal seems to put one foot on the steps. <\/p>\n

On the dragon’s back, a fantasy being says the following claim:“Graffiti doesn’t bite”<\/strong>. And to finish off the work, the reptile releases a flatulence to laugh at those who are uncomfortable with street art. Undoubtedly, one of the best examples of urban art you will find in Las Palmas. <\/p>\n

El Refugio Park<\/h3>\n

El Refugio Park has served as a stage for the creations of several artists. And not for less, since part of its facilities are dedicated to the <\/strong>skateboard<\/strong><\/em>. Numerous pieces await you on the ramps dedicated to the sport. Some are as simple as a lattice of letters and others are figurative. One of them was made by Again, which shows a skull from whose upper area comes out a spray.<\/em> <\/p>\n

But it’s not the only one you can see. On another of the ramps a man’s face has been drawn winking while smiling<\/strong>. This doesn’t say much on its own, although there is one detail that will interest you. The right corner houses a small heart that gives a touch of red that stands out in the composition. And this is one of the keys to urban art. <\/p>\n

Most of the scenes shown can be interpreted in multiple ways. At LOCK & enjoy! <\/strong>we encourage you to get to know this art of Las Palmas in depth. So, while you soak up the context and idiosyncrasies of the city, you can better understand each work. Of course, do not forget to store your luggage in a luggage locker<\/strong>, a way to gain security and peace of mind. <\/p>\n

The mural in La Minilla neighborhood<\/h3>\n

It is one of the most important works of Las Palmas for its origins and in LOCK & enjoy!<\/strong> we want you to know it. The mural is the result of the National Graffiti League held in 2021, an event that brought together numerous artists. Out of all of them, only ten made it to the finals, which allowed them to participate in this work. In total, a wall 42 meters wide by 3.8 meters high was used for the graffiti artists to do their work. <\/p>\n

The result is a set of scenes closely related to the city or that inspired the authors<\/strong>. You will be able to contemplate the writer Benito P\u00e9rez Gald\u00f3s and Compay Segundo, among others. It is a show of affection both for the illustrious characters of the place and for the town itself. In addition, a large part of the neighborhood community participated in the preparation of the wall. <\/p>\n

It was also an attempt to demonstrate that graffiti are not acts of vandalism<\/strong>, but one more aspect of human creativity. Although its medium is controversial, this art manages to revitalize dead or unnoticed spaces. <\/p>\n

These are the works that have surprised us the most at LOCK & enjoy!<\/strong> There are many more, but nothing better than discovering them with a trip to the city. Also, remember that we have Lockers in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.<\/strong><\/a>. You will always have a place to leave your luggage and this is the answer when you wonder if there is a locker near me<\/strong>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
