Between July and August 2020, Valencia is hosting two Joaquin Sorolla exhibitions, in the following locations:
Bancaja Foundation
The Bancaja Foundation is hosting a new Joaquin Sorolla exhibition, after its previous cancellation on the 14th of March, due to the coronavirus crisis.
The announcement was made by the art centre in Valencia, which will include works from the Sorolla Museum in Madrid and from the Bancaja Foundation’s own collection.
“Hunt for new impressions”, which has so far been displayed in the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum, will bring over 200 works of small, medium and large-format of the renowned Valencian artist, to Valencia. It is one of the painter’s most intimate phases.

Museo de Bellas Artes
The Museo de Bellas Artes (Museum of Fine Arts) of Valencia is hosting an exhibition dedicated to Joaquin Sorolla and his contemporaries: Pinazo, José and Mariano Benlliure, Muñoz Degraín, Antonio Fillol or Cecilio Plà.
The concept of this exhibition is without precedent, as it has never before united what are known as the sorollistas, the school of followers of his style, and the postsorollistas, the artist’s last followers, under the same banner.
The exhibition is open until the 30th of August 2020.
Visiting schedule
– Tuesday to Sunday: 10:00 – 20:00.
Prices
– Access is completely free.
Location
Museo de Bellas Artes of Valencia: Calle San Pío V, 9.
More information can be found on the museum’s website.
Museo de Bellas Artes Valencia offers free visits every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during the summer months.
