Guests of Honour, MNAC. Dec. 2, 2009 – Apr. 11, 2010

It’s been 75 years since the inauguration of the stunning Museu d’Art de Catalunya in Montjuic, and the museum is celebrating it’s birthday in style by bringing together 75 masterpieces of Catalan art from private collections, Catalan, European and American museums, and ecclesiastic patrimony.

The show takes us on a journey through Catalan art from the Middle Ages to the 20th Century, stopping to admire the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque periods along the way.

Certain pieces are making a very special journey home for the exhibition, such as The Farmer’s Wife by Joan Miró, which is being brought in from the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris.

The MNAC’s 75th birthday bash includes Anniversary Night, on December 18th, with free admission throughout the museum and live music in the Oval Hall.
