The new Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum opened its doors on 24th March 2011.
The Carmen Thyssen Bornemisza Collection Museum in Málaga will house 230 pictorial works granted to it by the Baroness. They are a perfect representation of the best Spanish painting of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, with pieces by Julio Romero de Torres, Ignacio Zuloaga, Joaquín Sorolla and Emilio Ocón. Most of the paintings will be freely donated to the Málaga museum until 2025, but a small list of works will be on loan for only three years. The Málaga Thyssen Museum will open its doors in the first quarter of 2011, and aspires to become the model for exposition centres and studios pertaining to that era.
