Overview

  • President Carlos Mazón confirmed advanced negotiations with the Hispanic Society of America to bring several Sorolla paintings to Valencia for an extended exhibition.
  • The agreement excludes Sorolla's monumental 'Visión de España' panels, which will remain in New York due to logistical challenges.
  • The Palacio de las Comunicaciones in Valencia is being considered as the likely venue for the exhibition, pending finalization of details.
  • This initiative builds on a long-standing partnership between Valencia and the Hispanic Society, including prior restoration projects and exhibitions of Sorolla's work.
  • Financial and logistical aspects of the agreement, including the specific works to be loaned and the duration of the exhibition, are still under discussion.
