Abstract
The exhibition Let in my Eyes his Look was held in Murcia during the year 2010. Aimed to commemorate the birth centenary of Ramon Gaya, it also showed the importance of masters of the past for Gaya, as well as the key role of great museums in his life and work. This admiration resulted not only in his celebrated “homages”, but also in the notes on his visits to the main European museum and trips, as well as his insightful essays. Although not included in the above mentioned exhibition, the ones in the Museum of Modern Art in Madrid and Murcia Fine Arts, visited in the years 1933 and 1934, are now considered evidence of the artist’s ideas about such institutions and museum management. This article focuses precisely on these two visits.Downloads
