Museo Universidad de Navarra

The University of Navarra Museum is a center for contemporary visual culture that concentrates and expands cultural, artistic and academic activities of the University, putting her in dialogue with the contemporary cultural and creative scene.

Our mission focuses on promoting research at national and international and interdisciplinary level, teaching at the university level and dissemination of contemporary art to society.

The museum collection consists of two legacies. On the one hand, the painting and sculpture collection comes from the legacy donated by Maria Josefa Huarte Beaumont University in 2008. The donation consists of fifty works of some of the most important twentieth-century artists like Picasso, Kandinsky, Rothko, Oteiza, Chillida and Tàpies. The museum also has a large collection of Photography also from a legacy, this time from Jose Ortiz-Echagüe, the most international Spanish photographer of the first half of S.XX. His legacy was donated to the University in 1990 and consists of 10,000 photographs and 100,000 negatives from the nineteenth century to contemporary times.
