The exhibition will be inaugurated on June 12 by His Majesty King Felipe VI.
Hospitalitas is a term with Greek roots and a Latin origin that the exhibition addresses from the primitive concept of solidarity, as it has been transferred and evolved to the present day. In the same way, its story will transcend towards a contemporary prism, attending to a fragmented reality.

Villafranca del Bierzo
In the church of Santiago, the production of an audiovisual experience that will welcome the visitor is planned. A project that, under the theme of hospitality, will be developed with pioneering techniques and that will convert this emblematic temple into an unprecedented immersive projection room.
The collegiate church of Villafranca del Bierzo will host approximately a hundred pieces from all over the country, with artists of the stature of Gregorio Fernández, Luisa Roldán, El Greco, Gil de Siloé, Juan de Juni and Luis Salvador Carmona, who will share space with other artists more recent ones like Venancio Blanco or Vela Zanetti. These works will be distributed in a preamble and four chapters called "stays":
Prelude: works of mercy.
