Joaquín Sorolla art exhibitions in Spain

Overview

Developments regarding the legacy of painter Joaquín Sorolla are occurring in Spain. In Valencia, the Museu de la Ciutat is preparing to host over 200 works being transferred from the Hispanic Society of America in New York. The Valencia City Council is investing approximately 300,000 euros to upgrade security infrastructure, including CCTV and fire detection, and to support building maintenance ahead of the collection’s expected arrival in November. This exhibition is slated to open to the public in early 2027.

In Madrid, the Museo Sorolla is scheduled to reopen this October following a two-year expansion. The project added more than 2,000 square meters of space, including an auditorium and new exhibition rooms. The reopening will be marked by an exhibition titled ‘Tras la casa del artista. Arquitecturas del Museo Sorolla, 1905-2026’, which examines the architectural history of the artist’s former residence.
