Museo Barjola

The Museo Barjola in Gijón, Spain, houses a major collection of works by the artist Juan Barjola. Opened in 1988, the museum is located in the historic, four-story Trinidad complex and is run by the Culture Department of the Principality of Asturias. The permanent exhibition spans three floors and takes you through the painter's career in chronological order. It begins on the third floor with early works from the 1950s, continues on the second floor with pieces from the 1970s, and ends on the first floor with paintings from the 1980s. The ground floor is used for rotating special exhibitions, so you can experience both Barjola's artistic development and current contemporary art.
