RAS, Actar's Bookstore

RAS is Actar's bookstore and gallery space in Barcelona. Combining gallery and bookshop, RAS specializes in architecture, graphic design and photography.

It is the main bookshop for ACTAR’s titles as well as an international showcase of publications from illustrated book publishers worldwide.

An experimental space for exhibitions, RAS plays host to visual art displays by local and international creative talents, and brings to life the content of publications with author talks and events.

In this way, RAS dissolves and interrelates the different material practices - architecture, design, photography, art – by revealing these practices as sources of open, continuous dialogue crossing the boundaries of material production, publication, and exhibition.

¨Rah, rah, rah for Ras, an experimental bookstore-all polished concrete and cast iron-that looks every bit as slick as the titles it carries. Ras's shelves are lined with the latest coffee-table books from international photographers, as well as tomes on art and architecture. The store doubles as an exhibition space¨. Travel & Leisure
