Valencia’s Centro de Arte Hortensia Herrero to Open First Temporary Show With Anselm Kiefer on April 28, 2026

The exhibition reconfigures palace galleries for monumental landscape works, signaling the museum’s international aspirations.

Overview

  • The show runs through the end of October 2026 and will occupy multiple galleries, with parts of the permanent collection moved to accommodate large-scale pieces.
  • A highlight is Danaë, a roughly 13‑meter‑wide work receiving its first European presentation after being shown in New York.
  • Several works will arrive directly from Kiefer’s Paris studio, with some created specifically for the Valencia presentation.
  • Planned programming includes an exhibition catalogue, a screening of Wim Wenders’s documentary Anselm, and guided visits.
  • The museum reports 400,000 visitors in its first two years and is in discussions for future temporary exhibitions following this launch.
