The Fundación Telefónica Exhibition Programme in 2009

Each year the Fundación Telefónica organises, in its four Cultural Spaces, an ambitious programme that represents both established traditional tendencies and more avant-garde notions, through a series of temporary exhibitions produced either by the Foundation itself or in collaboration with other institutions. It should be highlighted that 149,457 people attended these spaces to see the 15 major exhibitions the Foundation organised.

The prestigious touring exhibitions that the Fundación Telefónica organises significantly contribute to ensuring that their artistic and cultural content reach the greatest possible number of people. In total, almost 249,500 people have visited our 9 travelling exhibitions.

Finally, the collaboration between the foundation and other museums and cultural institutions, for the purpose of strengthening the dissemination of art, have resulted, among other examples, in Feedforward - The Angel of History, an exhibition produced in collaboration with the LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial de Gijón, of which the foundation is both a founder and a patron. The exhibition was visited by over 5,500 people.
