EXHIBITIONS
As the Museo del Prado establishes a dialogue between Turner's most important paintings, works by masters of other periods and those contemporary with his own time, the Thyssen presents a collection of Florentine art from the Quattrocento era. Meanwhile the Reina Sofía displays numerous examples of works from the New Realist movement. All these exhibitions, and many more, are waiting for you in Madrid.
Veranos de la Villa
Go to Madrid this summer is the slogan for this year's edition of the Veranos de la Villa festival, where for yet another year, rock, pop, jazz, flamenco, folk, reggae, R&B, soul, raï and gospel will fill the Puerta del Angel stage, while another attractive open air venue, the lush Sabatini Gardens will be flooded with zarzuela, flamenco and fados. Come August 5 in Plaza Mayor, you can enjoy Beethoven's Sixth and Seventh Symphonies performed by the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra which was created by Argentinean-Israeli director Daniel Barenboim and Palestinian intellectual Edward Saïd in 1999 to foster awareness and dialogue about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
