Espacio Goya
Not Another New Museum In both size and historical importance, the Zaragoza Museum’s collection of works by Goya is not sufficient to fill a new building and attract enough visitors over the long term. Given the growing competition of new, exciting high style museums in Spain and in so many other places all over the world, even the most attractive exhibition schedule of old and new art would not in itself be reason enough for people to travel to Zaragoza. Attempting a Programme We therefore gave initial priority to the programming of the future Espacio Goya, and we have chosen to focus on this aspect since it is the only means of discovering a truly new approach to finding an architectural solution. Attempting a Place On the basis of our experience with museums and exhibition venues, and especially our collaboration with artists themselves, we realise that a successful Espacio Goya must unite architecture, artwork and location to form a distinctive, unique whole that is possible only in and for Zaragoza. It has become increasingly difficult to speak of an authentic place especially with respect to museums.
