BARBIER-MUELLER Museum of PRE-COLOMBIAM ART |
||
Housed in a Gothic mansion on the historic Carrer Montcada, opposite the Museu Picasso, we find the only museum in Europe devoted to the art of pre-Columbian cultures (from 1500 BC to the 16th century). The museum's small and intimate collection comprises some 100 exhibits, including sculptures in stone and wood, ceramics, tapestries and jades. A treasure trove which provides an insight into the wealth and wisdom of the peoples who inhabited Mesoamerica and South America before the Discovery, including the Olmecs, Mayas, Aztecs and tncas. THE IMAGE OF THE BODY The museum interpreted by Robert Wilson Until 27th February This exhibition features a selection of pre-Columbian pieces in settings specially created for the occasion by the U.S. artist Bob Wilson.
