Friends visit to the MACBA storage facilities

Explore the MACBA storage facilities and discover how the works in the Collection are recorded and managed. 

The rooms in the MACBA storage facilities, where an essential part of the museum’s Collection is stored, are normally closed to the public. On this exclusive visit for Friends, we will have the chance to find out how these artistic assets are managed. 

Accompanied by our register team, we will discover how the works are kept, what recording and conservation processes ensure their preservation and how the space is organised to host the museum’s artistic assets. This way, we will approach the Collection from a completely different point of view. 

MACBA Collection

The MACBA Collection focuses on the art of the period spanning the second half of the twentieth century to the present. Without ignoring the specificity of any moment, it centres on what the notion of artistic contemporaneity and its multiplicity of languages has meant during the last decades.
