Fundació Suñol, Private art foundation in La Maternitat i Sant Ramon, Spain
Description
Fundació Suñol is an art museum in Barcelona housed within a private foundation that displays contemporary and modern works across several gallery spaces. The rooms showcase paintings, sculptures, and mixed media by different artists, arranged in rotating presentations throughout the collection.
History
The foundation was established in 2007 when a Barcelona art collector decided to open his private collection to the public through an organized institution. This launch marked an important moment for the city's art scene, making a significant collection available to regular visitors and students.
Culture
