Oct 16 2026 - Jan 10 2027

Artists Eugenio Ampudia, Marco Godoy and José Val del Omar are taking part in the group exhibition The Aesthetic Transition. Spain, 1960–2020 at the Fundación Juan March, on view until 10 January 2027.

Marco Godoy, Eugenio Ampudia and José Val del Omar are featured in The Aesthetic Transition. Spain, 1960–2020, the exhibition presented by the Fundación Juan March at its Madrid venue from 16 October 2026 to 10 January 2027.

The Aesthetic Transition. Spain, 1960–2020 is an exhibition about the act of exhibiting and its vicissitudes in Spain from the 1960s to the present day. Through a wide selection of artworks, photographs, audiovisual pieces and documents —including seventy-one case studies on the arrival of international art in Spain—, the show, whose dense display evokes travel, reception and the intense accumulation of the new in time and space, examines how modern and contemporary art was received in the country. It does so through the work of many Spanish artists and the initiatives promoted by public and private institutions as well as by individual projects, galleries, and independent or countercultural spaces. All of this is framed within the context of the political Transition of the 1970s and 1980s and the country’s evolution towards a visual culture that, in recent decades, has become fully globalised.
