Guided tour of the temporary exhibition Rosario de Velasco
On Sunday afternoons from June to September the museum is offering guided tours of the exhibition devoted to the Spanish figurative painter Rosario de Velasco. It brings together thirty paintings from the most notable years of her career, together with a section on her work as a graphic illustrator. In addition to well-known paintings from museum collections, such as the celebrated oil Adam and Eve from the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía and The Slaughter of the Innocent (1936) from the Museo de Bellas Artes de Valencia, visitors will see works from the family collection that have never previously been exhibited and others only identified and located in recent years.
The exhibition, jointly organised with the Museo de Bellas Artes de Valencia and in collaboration with the Autonomous Community and City Council of Madrid, aims to rediscover the work of one of the great Spanish women artists of the first half of the 20th century.
Tickets are available at the museum’s ticket desks and on its website, with a supplement of €9 on the ticket price to the exhibition.
