Picasso’s ‘Guernica’ Could Leave Madrid for the First Time in Over 30 Years

The Basque regional government has formally requested a temporary loan of Pablo Picasso's 'Guernica' from Madrid's Museo Reina Sofía to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao for a period from October 2026 to June 2027. This would mark the painting's first movement since 1992 and is timed to coincide with the 90th anniversary of the bombing of Guernica. The request faces strong opposition from the Reina Sofía, which has released a conservation report stating the monumental canvas is too fragile to travel.
