Explore the Reina Sofia Art Museum: Private 2-hour Guided Tour

Overview

Explore the Reina Sofia Museum, one of the most important museums of Modern and Contemporary art founded in 1990 with one of the finest collections of 20th-century art in Europe. Together with the Prado Museum and Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the Reina Sofia Museum forms Madrid’s prestigious Golden Triangle of Art. Whilst moving through the galleries - a crossroads in objects and time - explore the museum’s style of displaying its pieces, which positions masterpiece paintings side by side with photography, film, sound, design and dance without hierarchy. Learn why certain styles and movements proliferated at different points in the 20th century and examine the impact of the socio-political climate on the lives of the artists and their art. When you reach Guernica - one of Picasso's finest works - explore why the artist would have preferred it is on display at the Prado.
