Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art
The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art ((カタルーニャ語、バレンシア語:Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona), ; abbreviated as ''MACBA'') is situated in the Plaça dels Àngels, in El Raval, Ciutat Vella, Barcelona, Spain. The museum opened to the public on November 28, 1995. Previous directors were Daniel Giralt-Miracle (1988–1994), Miguel Molins (1995–1998), Manuel J. Borja-Villel (1998–2007), Bartomeu Marí (2008-2015) and Ferran Barenblit (2015-)
==History==
In 1959, art critic Alexandre Cirici Pellicer formed a group of contemporary artists showing work in a series of 23 exhibitions with the hopes of beginning a collection for a new contemporary art museum in Barcelona. It was not until 1986 that the Barcelona City Council recommended the American architect Richard Meier & Partners (1987–1995) to design the museum. Art critics Francesc Miralles and Rosa Queralt were hired to write the museum’s mission statement. In 1987, the MACBA Foundation was created. In the following year the MACBA Foundation, in conjunction with the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Barcelona City Council, founded the MACBA Consortium in order further the process of the museum. The Consortium commissioned Meier later that year to build the museum.〔MACBA website,〕 This was a controversial issue considering that the museum had no collection at the time of construction. The museum opened to the public in 1995,〔Belen Palanco (July 24, 2015), (Beleaguered Barcelona museum gets a new director ) ''The Art Newspaper''.〕 well after the 1992 Summer Olympics for which it was planned.〔Alan Riding (May 10, 1995), (A Modern 'Pearl' Inside Old Barcelona ) ''New York Times''.〕
In 2014, the museum acquired an additional venue for its programming, comprising a converted 15th-century chapel and two large halls, a total of about 21,500 square feet, as well as the central Plaça dels Angels square. While MACBA has long used the chapel for performances and site-specific installations, this time the city lent the entire historic cluster to the institution for an unspecified term.〔Julie Baumgardner (July 22, 2014), (MACBA To Expand ) ''Art in America''.〕
