Art Gallery sights in Alicante

  1. A

    Museo de Arte Contémporaneo de Alicante (MACA)

    Closed for many years while its premises, the splendid 17th-century Casa de la Asegurada, was renovated and enlarged, this splendid museum was about to reopen at the time of writing. It has an excellent collection of 20th-century Spanish art, including works by Dalí, Miró, Chillida, Sempere, Tàpies and Picasso.

  2. B

    Museo de Bellas Artes Gravina (MUBAG)

    Alicante's fine-arts museum, with canvases from the Middle Ages to the 1920s, is within the Palacio de Gravina, a stalwart 18th-century mansion. The setting and presentation are terrific – perhaps more so than the paintings themselves.
