El euro como lienzo: Concurso del Banco Central Europeo para rediseñar los billetes
La riqueza del patrimonio cultural europeo y los ríos y las aves como símbolos de libertad y conexión con la naturaleza son los dos temas seleccionados para esta nueva convocatoria, en la que podrán participar diseñadores residentes en cualquier país de la UE. Aprovechamos este anuncio para hacer un recorrido por la presencia del billete como objeto y motivo artístico en las obras de la Colección Banco de España.
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.
'Itineraries' section updated with a new podcast inviting listeners to imagine 'another history of money'
The new itinerary is the result of a series of conversations between curator and writer Sonia Fernández Pan and artists Patricia Esquivias, Francesc Ruiz, Rubén Grilo and Fritzia Irízar, in which the artists discuss their works in the bank's collection, reflecting on money and the economy and their symbolic and material effects on the lives of people and territories.
