Toledo and Cuenca. The fascinating medieval city of Toledo, with its Visigothic, Islamic, Jewish and Christian heritage should definitely be on any art lovers list, as should nearby Cuenca, a wondrous place, seemingly about to topple off its eagle’s-eyrie perch high above a gorge, where highlights include one museum featuring works by El Greco and another packed with works by Saura, Tapies and Chillida amongst others.
It includes works by Joseph Beuys, Dan Flavin, Joseph Albers, Paul Klee, Nan Goldin, Jenny Holzer, Anish Kapoor, Philippe Parreno, Gordon Matta-Clark and many others, which the public will be able to experience for free in a space that was specially designed to display them.
The new museum is designed by award-winning Tuñón Arquitectos Studio.
It includes spacious galleries and exhibition spaces and is located on a landmark site on an imaginary line that separates the medieval historic centre of Cáceres, a World Heritage site, from the modern part of the city.
Ms de Alvear was born in Germany in 1936 and has lived in Spain since 1957.
