An exhibition exploring art and culture of Spain and the Hispanic world will be coming to the Royal Academy of Arts
The Royal Academy of Arts will present Spain and the Hispanic World, showcasing masterpieces by Goya and Velázquez to objects from Latin America.
In January 2023, the Royal Academy of Arts will present Spain and the Hispanic World, celebrating the unrivalled collection of the Hispanic Society Museum & Library in New York. This landmark exhibition will present a visual narrative of the history of Spanish culture, bringing together outstanding works from Spain and colonial Latin America, from antiquity to the early 20th century. Spain and the Hispanic World will reflect the great diversity of cultural and religious influences, from Celtic, Islamic, Christian and Jewish to American, African and Asian, that have shaped and enriched Spanish culture across four millennia. The selection of over 150 works will include paintings, sculptures, silk textiles, ceramics, lustreware, silverwork, precious jewellery, maps, drawings and illuminated manuscripts.
Founded in New York in 1904 by Archer M. Huntington, the Hispanic Society Museum & Library is home to the most extensive collection of Spanish and Hispanic art outside of Spain. This is the first time the collection will be presented in the UK.
Location: Main Galleries, Royal Academy of Arts, Burlington House, London, W1J 0BD. Date: 21 January — 10 April 2023, Price: from £22/concessions available.
