Collection meets Spanish Artists

A journey to Spain through a selection of emblematic works, mostly abstract, from the international avant-garde of the 1950s to the 1970s, in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War. The creations of Manolo Millares, Manuel Mompó, Manuel Rivera and Antoni Tàpies enter into dialogue with emblematic pieces from the Royal Museums’ collection. The result? An intense encounter between artists in search of freedom and openness. Discover these distinctive Hispanic abstract and informal tendencies, characterised by raw materials, spontaneous gestures and bold experimentation. This is the second chapter of "Collection Meets", a new series of presentations dedicated to contemporary or modern art that establishes a dialogue between works from the RMFAB collections and pieces from external collections.
