What to see at Barcelona's Museum of Contemporary Art?

Barcelona's Museum of Contemporary Art (MACBA) presents major works by contemporary artists such as Antoni Tàpies, Paul Klee and Alexander Calder. Emblematic pieces include Tàpies' Gran Vidrio and works by Joan Miró. The collection covers abstract art, minimalism and pop art. The museum's history makes it a cultural landmark in Barcelona, attracting visitors for its temporary exhibitions and dynamic installations that enrich the artistic experience.

Who built Barcelona's Museum of Contemporary Art?

The MACBA is also visited for its architecture. An emblematic building designed by American architect Richard Meier. Its modernist style is characterized by clean lines and an abundance of natural light thanks to the use of large glass facades. The contrast between its white, minimalist aesthetic and the historic Raval district in which it is located reinforces the idea of a dialogue between past and present. This architecture enables a fluid experience between the exhibition spaces and the urban environment. Built between 1987 and 1995, the MACBA opened its doors on November 28, 1995.
