ACTION PLAN

In order to fulfill its mission, the José Guerrero Centre carries out its annual action plans in three distinct areas.

The permanent collection

The permanent collection brings together the tasks that fulfill the inherent functions of a museum institution – the conservation, cataloguing, restoration, research, dissemination and exhibition of its assets. Regarding the last function, exhibition is conceived not as a stable, but as a dynamic process. The selection of works on show will therefore vary periodically and can be presented in an innovative fashion, discovering different aspects and in comparison with other works, whether contemporary or not. The aim is to attract the most attention possible to the collection through the customary techniques and resources used for planning the temporary exhibitions that accompany it, since the Centre will continually present a representative selection of Guerrero’s work in one or more of its rooms.

Temporary exhibitions

Temporary exhibitions will be planned to cover all the art of the 20th and 21st centuries in its distinct forms, and also promote dialogue with artworks from the past. Whenever possible, the aim will be to produce the Centre’s own projects, while not rejecting co-productions and exchanges with other centres. The main types will be:

Historical reviews of an informative nature
Thematic exhibitions on current art
Monographic exhibitions of Spanish and international artists
Special commissions to artists whose starting point is Guerrero’s work or whose source of inspiration is the province of Granada
Travelling exhibitions on Guerrero

Public programmes

The José Guerrero Centre offers itself as a space for participation, reflexion, public action and interrelation between different artists, collaborators, curators and audiences. The museum thus operates as a mediator, by providing the various agents on the art scene with the tools necessary for them to carry out their work. One central activity to be promoted is education based on questions more than answers, respecting the knowledge of the learner and suppressing neither the necessary confrontation between the artwork and the viewer, nor the subversive, disturbing and transforming power of art. Encouragement will also be given to other activities such as lectures, film cycles, concerts, publications and all that which makes the Centre a diversified cultural catalyst, allowing it to fulfill its educational, training and research functions.
