    (Translated by Google) The MURAM (Regional Museum of Modern Art, Cartagena; Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia) is located in an architectural complex in which the union of modernity and tradition is appreciated. This complex is made up of one of the most emblematic buildings in the city of Cartagena: the Aguirre Palace (1901), a modernist building. Annex to the Aguirre Palace is located the MURAM, in the building rehabilitated by the architect Martín Lejarraga. In April 2009 it was inaugurated with a temporary exhibition by the sculptor Auguste Rodin. It houses only temporary exhibitions; it brings together, both on the continent and in content, the different concepts of modernity. One of its objectives is to exhibit and disseminate the artistic manifestations produced in a chronological period that spans from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the second half of the 20th century. It has magnificent exhibition spaces in which the works of the most significant modern artists, both regional and international, are exhibited. Proof of this have been the numerous exhibitions of works by internationally known artists are: Dalí, Rodin, Tapies, Chillida. (Original) El MURAM (Museo Regional de Arte Moderno, Cartagena; Comunidad Autónoma de la Región de Murcia) está ubicado en un conjunto arquitectónico en el que se aprecia la unión de modernidad y tradición. Este conjunto está configurado por uno de los edificios más emblemáticos de la ciudad de Cartagena: el Palacio Aguirre (1901), edificio modernista. Anexo al Palacio Aguirre se ubica el MURAM, en el edificio rehabilitado por el arquitecto Martín Lejarraga. En el mes de abril de 2009 fue inaugurado con una exposición temporal del escultor Auguste Rodin. Alberga sólo exposiciones temporales; aúna,tanto en el continente como en el contenido, los diferentes conceptos de modernidad. Uno de sus objetivos es exhibir y difundir las manifestaciones artísticas producidas en un período cronológico que abarca desde finales del siglo XIX y los inicios de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Cuenta con magníficos espacios expositivos en los que se exhiben las obras de los artistas modernos más significativos, tanto regionales como internacionales. Muestra de ello han sido las numerosas exposiciones de obras de artistas internacionalmente conocidos son: Dalí, Rodin, Tapies, Chillida.

    Never been inside to be honest. That's because you can see lots of Modernist buildings around the city center. In fact, just on the right as you would leave the Museum, there's is an awesome abandoned Modernist house.

  • 4/5 Berni A. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a small art museum, with a good collection varying from the absurdly awful to some very thought provoking pieces. There is currently an exhibition around the theme of Covid. Its centred around living with the virus and how it affected people in lockdown. That was very good.

    (Translated by Google) This Palace is one of the few modernist buildings that have been preserved internally in Cartagena. You can visit the first floor, which is mostly original.
