My current hometown, Playa del Carmen is not just white sand, turquoise water, tacos and tequila - you can actually find much more here. Today I want to introduce you to an international art gallery located in a hidden garden right off Playa del Carmen’s 5th Avenue, you will find here some world-class artworks by over 30 different artists.
You imagine magical garden full of large, beautiful trees providing shade to a quaint courtyard lined with a restaurant, a spa, a unique souvenir shop, and two colorful art galleries. The painting catches our eyes...Wow, What an amazing place for all art lovers!
One of the galleries, Gaston Charo Art Gallery is owned and operated by Argentinian-born Gastón Charó, well know as international exhibitions in Argentina, Europe and Central America.
Gaston Charo is an excellent and multitalented artist with a very colorful view of the world. His gallery is a true oasis in the middle of all the tourist traps.
I highly recommend to visit this place with vibrant colors and warm atmosphere of this haven for creativity and culture. It is very quite place for all who want to have a break and see somenting different and unique in Playa del Carmen.
I fell in love with this particular painting in the cubism style.
Address: Calle Quinta Avenida 173, entre 6 y 8, Playa del Carmen
This is also my contribution to #marketfriday hosted by our amazing Denise @dswigle.

I must tell you that I smile everytime I see you say my current hometown. While the statement is completely accurate, it just reminds me of the beautiful lifestyle in which you live. ❣
Wait a minute! Let me scroll back a moment. Playa del Carmen it's not all about the white sand turquoise water Tacos & Tequila anymore? Tell me it isn't so!
Just kidding, of course.
It is absolutely a playground for art lovers! I am so very happy that you get to enjoy all the facets of living in a country that is not in your phone. Is always enjoyable to see people that take advantage what is available to them spend their time exploring.
Gaston Charo was very popular down in Buenos Aires and I'm actually glad when he moved up to Mexico because it makes it any easier reach for me. His work I've only seen one time and even back then he was very innovative and unique in his styling. No wonder he has become slightly exclusive. Have you gotten to meet him? I wasn't sure if he was on the premises oh, but I think that he would be an interesting person to me because his paintings and sculptures where are amazing and I always wonder how the mind works of someone so gifted in the Arts. Thank you so much for showing off the gallery and I hope that we can come back and visit again as one could never get enough of the good stuff.
Thank you so much, Tammy, for taking the time to photograph all of these and for putting a post together for the market Friday challenge. It is very much appreciated! And as always, I wish you a very nice weekend!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Yeah, this little gem was definitely worth seeing. I was lucky to come across Gastón’s gallery. His art is amazing and the art of other local artists was extraordinary. It is fairly expensive but really nice to have a look around and see some mexican and mayan culture:)
Thanks for nice comment, Happy Saturday, Denise, hope you're enjoying your day:)
Wow! it's a nice market present such a unique art.
Strongly recommended! Gaston is undoubtedly one of the best artists in the region if not in Mexico;)
