The Museum of Forbidden Art closes indefinitely.
The Museum of Forbidden Art arrived in Barcelona in 2023 to give visibility to and vindicate censored artworks from around the world. This June, the museum is forced to close its doors indefinitely.
It is a painful and undesired closure, but an unavoidable one, due to the financial losses caused by the protest staged outside the museum for the past four months, led by the SUT labor union. During this period, the threats and slander resulting from this situation have disrupted the museum’s normal operation, and the losses have become unsustainable.
After a year and a half since its opening, the world’s only museum dedicated to displaying banned artworks is closing intending to become a nomadic collection, with traveling exhibitions around the globe. A collection that will remain alive and continue to stand as a meeting point to confront censorship.
Thank you for being with us. We hope to see you again very soon!
