The Juan March Foundation Museum reaches three decades in Palma and celebrates it by reinventing its spaces. The renovation works, which began in 2018, sought to add to the existing museum the profile of a culture center that would render a better public service to the cultural life of Palma. Thirty years after it opened at 11 Calle Sant Miquel in Palma, the museum is more prepared than ever to host programs and activities in different formats and of a multidisciplinary nature.<\/p>\n

The creation of new spaces and facilities, exhibition programs and a new line of cultural programming mark this renovation of the museum. Now it makes the most of the spaces dedicated to the collection and exhibitions. In addition, the building has been equipped with multipurpose spaces suitable for its future status as a cultural center. The most obvious change for the public after the reform is that of the new access to the museum, thanks to which the modernist courtyard of the building has been won for the museum as a room more dedicated to sculpture. It has new additions by Baltasar Lobo, Sergi Aguilar, Josep Guinovart, Francisco Farreras, Jorge Oteiza, Julio Gonz\u00e1lez and a new large-format flying sculpture, commissioned to Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Yturralde.<\/p>\n

This renovation of spaces is only the architectural version of the renewed cultural program that is intended for the museum and that will be fully active in early 2022.<\/p>\n

New cultural programming<\/h2>\n

The program begins in October with the series “The conversation”, an interview format that in its first cycle has invited artists, teachers, educators, curators and museum professionals to talk with a moderator about a topic. The day after each public session there is a seminar-workshop for professionals and colleagues from other institutions in Palma. The conversations can be followed live on Canal March and YouTube.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
