The Amics del MNAC foundation
The abertis foundation cooperates with
the Amics
del MNAC foundation
in
order to allow a wider public to be drawn closer to culture and to promote
the National Museum of Art of Catalonia MNAC.
The mission of the institution is to foster knowledge about the MNAC, which in 2008 drew more than 880,000 visitors, and to enrich its art collection. To do so, it organises guided tours and cooperates with the purchase and donation of works, among other activities.
The MNAC encompasses a range of artistic disciplines (sculpture, painting, object arts, drawings, engravings, posters, photography collections and coin collections) and strives to provide an overview of Catalan art from the Romanesque to the mid-20th century.
