On Saturday 15 May we celebrated the 15th edition of the Night of the Museums, which has been held in Barcelona since 2007, following a call from the Direction des musées de France. It has established itself in Europe as a night of broad citizen participation to visit museums after hours (at night) and with recreational proposals adapted to the COVID-19. A magical night of open doors where we invite you to see the works in a different light. This year we encourage you to enjoy the collection and the temporary exhibitions:

Temporary exhibitions and displays

• Intrusive Dialogues. Everything is the present

A new look at the collection through the exhibition of a selection of nineteen artworks of contemporary art by the Fundació Suñol, the artists Evru/Zush, Joan Brossa, Carmen Calvo, Eduardo Chillida, Lucio Fontana, Susana Solano and Antoni Tàpies. These artworks enter into dialogue, by way of analogy or contrast, with historical works of medieval, Renaissance, Baroque or modernist art.

• The Endless War. Antoni Campañà

Retrospective exhibition that allows us to get to know the work of the photographer Antoni Campañà Bandranas in its full dimension. Through more than 300 photographs, we discover the personality and multiple facets of this author, and for the first time, we can admire in the rooms of a museum a selection of the photographs of the so-called Red Box, where Campañà wanted to close the tragedy lived during the war, immortalized in thousands of images of the conflict.

• REPAIR by Svantje Busshoff

An exhibition of everyday objects repaired through stitching or embroidery by the creator Svantje Busshoff. With these delicate works, she invites us to look at what goes unnoticed or may seem insignificant, a proposal that celebrates the imperfections and accidents of the objects around us.
