MAÓ

J. Vives Llull. L'home i el col·leccionista

The Museum of Menorca in Maó is holding until July 30, 2002, the exhibition "J. Vives Llull. L'home i el col·leccionista". The exhibition, organised by the Museum of Menorca and the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Balearic Goverment, is part of the events programmed for the "Vives Llull Year", promoted by the Maó Town Council to commemorate the birth centenary of the artist.

Joan Vives Llull (1901-1982) was one of the most important Menorcan artists in the XX century. He was also a professor, an antique dealer and a collector, and together with his wife, Antònia Campomar, he created a big collection of antique objects that after his death became part of the Museum of Menorca, according to the artist's will.

The exhibition presents some 500 antique objects, including drawings, paintings, popular carvings and furniture produced on Menorca in the XVIII and XIX centuries, Menorcan dresses from the XVII to the XIX centuries and some other pieces produced outside the island, that are on Menorca because of different reasons, such as ceramics, porcelains, glasses and jewels.

Visiting times: every day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Free entrance
