AArspect
Arspect is a Barcelona-based B2B contemporary art rental platform connecting emerging and professional artists with companies (offices, hotels, corporate spaces) that rent artworks to enrich their environments and support cultural/social-impact goals. Founded in July 2019, it raised early seed capital via equity crowdfunding and remains active in 2026, with recent projects for clients like Galenicum and Fluidra and presence at Madrid art fairs.
