Spain Threatens to Oust Reina Sofía Director Over Missing Artworks and Finances

Spain’s government has escalated pressure on the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, demanding a complete inventory of its 25,000-plus artworks by December 31, 2026. A parliamentary oversight committee passed a resolution backed by the conservative Popular Party and far-right, warning that failure to comply could lead to the removal of museum director Manuel Segade. The resolution calls for a full audit of holdings, including loans and missing pieces, and updated financial valuations. The museum faces years of criticism from Spain’s Court of Auditors over weak internal controls and tracking issues, including a 2021 donation that can no longer be fully accounted for.

In a letter posted on Instagram, the union cites Wexner's documented ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, noting his name appears over 1,300 times in Department of Justice files. The union argues that the connection meets the university's criteria for renaming, and that staff face daily harassment while artists refuse to collaborate due to the Epstein association.
