Conse – Homage to Makha Diop / “Conse Andechaga” Mural
At the end of April 2021, a new permanent mural by Catalan artist Conse appeared in El Raval as a tribute to Makha Diop (Thiès, Senegal, 1958 – Barcelona, 2020), a neighborhood activist known for his sand paintings on Las Ramblas. The project, promoted by the sociocultural association FILS, aims to make the African community visible through its cultural heritage, complemented by conferences and debates. The mural is located on Calle Ramelleres, in the so-called “Plaza del Guaje,” and references a historic nearby bar. It stands out for celebrating collective memory and Diop’s contribution to the neighborhood.

Aryz – Apolo / Sala Apolo
Urban artist Aryz intervened on the main façade of Sala Apolo with a monumental mural representing the Greek god Apollo—symbol of music, creativity, and the arts—in a contemporary and defiant version: arms crossed, confident gaze, and vivid colors emphasizing the importance of culture in Barcelona. The work, created as part of the exhibition project “Art Meets Apolo,” will be displayed on Avinguda Paral·lel for at least one year. It acts as a visual statement linking Apollo’s mythical legacy with the city’s artistic and musical pulse.
