On March 15, the MUREC, a museum dedicated to contemporary Spanish realist art, was inaugurated. His works, among which there are paintings, sculptures, drawings and engravings, cover the panorama of this artistic style in Spain from the beginning of the 20th century to the present. 

​

One of the fundamental nuclei is the work of the Realists of Madrid, among which there are several paintings and drawings by María Moreno, presented together with the works of her colleagues and friends: Antonio López, Isabel Quintanilla, Francisco López, Amalia Avia, Julio López and Esperanza Parada. 

​

This project is located in the Hospital de Santa María Magdalena in Almería capital, a 16th-century building restored for the occasion.

For only three weeks, you can visit an exhibition of Antonio López in a unique location: the Modelo prison in Barcelona. A small selection of his works occupies several cells in gallery 5 of this former prison, now converted into a cultural centre.

​

In one of these cells, it is displayed a selection of children's heads made by the artist, including four by María Moreno. In them, she represented two of her grandchildren.

​

​This exhibition arises in the context of Antonio's collaboration with El Liceu for the concert of Franz Schubert's Winterreise in the same prison. This recital, which will only have three performances, is accompanied by a video in which, under the stage direction of Bárbara Lluch, images of works by Antonio López have been used.
