Un verano más, el museo se transforma en un espacio pensado para combatir el calor como se ha hecho toda la vida: a la fresca, sin prisas y con buena compañía. Inspirado en esos rincones de siempre donde se está bien sin hacer nada, este proyecto convierte el museo en un refugio veraniego donde simplemente se puede estar.

The artist Ángela Cuadra invites us on a guided tour of the exhibition 1502 people facing the wall, where she will approach the artist's work from the paradoxes of the gaze, the devices of visibility and concealment with which the facts are presented to us.

In May several birthdays are celebrated in Madrid, and we are going to make a gift-tribute to our region.

In the summer of 1959 the Estonian non-fiction film producer and opera singer Friedrich Jürgenson and his partner tried to record the birdsong of a finch in order to use it in one of their documentaries. In the forest near their home Friedrich placed a tape recorder and remained silent as he tried to record the birdsong. On returning home, he played back what he had recorded.
