Museo Extremeño e Iberoamericano de Arte Contemporáneo

The Museo Extremeño e Iberoamericano de Arte Contemporáneo is an art museum in Badajoz dedicated to contemporary works. It features multiple gallery spaces displaying paintings, sculptures, digital installations, and multimedia creations.

The building originated as a prison before being converted into an art institution. This transformation was intended to establish cultural links between Extremadura and Latin America.

The museum displays works by artists from Spain and Latin America. The collection brings together different artistic movements from both sides of the Atlantic, combining traditional media with digital and multimedia approaches.

The museum operates on a regular schedule with varying hours throughout the week. It is advisable to check opening times before your visit, as these may vary seasonally.

The institution maintains NETescopio, a digital archive that collects and documents internet-based artworks by Spanish and Latin American creators. This specialized online project makes it possible to explore contemporary digital art forms that would otherwise be difficult to access.
