Actualizamos la sección de "Destacados de la Colección" con tres de las obras artísticas que se pueden ver en las visitas del programa Puertas Abiertas
Se trata del retrato que realizó Ignacio Zuloaga a Alejandro Fernández de Araoz, gobernador del Banco de España en 1935; de la pieza escultórica 'Reflections in a Golden Eye', donde el artista malagueño Carlos Aires pone de relieve el estatus sagrado que ha adquirido el dinero en el mundo contemporáneo; y de una de las fotografías sobre la Cámara del Oro del edifico de Cibeles que llevó a cabo Cristina Lucas en 2014.
The Banco de España opens its doors to the public to view some of its rich heritage
Under a new programme of guided tours organised by the Banco de España, visitors will have a chance to view some of the most iconic spaces in the bank's building on Plaza Cibeles and explore a large selection of the works at the core of its artistic collection, including Goya's portraits of its first governors and recently commissioned photographs by Annie Leibovitz of King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia. Three different types of tours are on offer, with scheduled activities throughout the week.
Fourteen Works from the Collection Loaned to Exhibitions by Spanish Art and Museum Organisations
The pieces include three prints from Goya's series of 'Follies' and 'Disasters of War'; an oil painting by Joaquín Sorolla ('In the Tavern. Zarauz'); a painting by Soledad Sevilla ('Las Meninas V') and two late-seventeenth-century paintings of flower vases by Gabriel de la Corte.
