To mark the centenary of the installation of Joaquín Sorolla’s monumental mural series Vision of Spain, the Hispanic Society has launched an outdoor kiosk exhibition on Audubon Terrace dedicated to Sorolla’s masterpiece. Curated by Dr. Noemí Espinosa, Associate Curator at the Hispanic Society, A Living Vision: The Sorolla Gallery at 100 tells the story behind one of the most recognizable sets of works in the Hispanic Society collection. Featuring rare photographs, reproductions of Sorolla’s sketches for the project, and excerpts from the artist’s letters, the exhibition gives visitors an inside view of the inspiring and at times arduous process of creating and installing the series. The exhibition will be accompanied by a series of lectures about Vision of Spain which will take place over the next year. Stay tuned for updates about programs and digital content related to this exhibition.

A Living Vision: the Sorolla Gallery at 100 is open from May 21, 2026 to May 27, 2027
