Where Does "Guernica" Belong?

Wohin gehört "Guernica"?

Basque Prime Minister Imanol Pradales has formally requested the temporary transfer of Pablo Picasso’s masterpiece "Guernica" from Madrid to the Basque Country. The proposal seeks to exhibit the monumental 1937 anti-war painting at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao for nine months starting in late 2026 to coincide with the 90th anniversary of the town's bombing. While the work depicts the destruction of the Basque town of Gernika by Nazi and Italian fascist forces, it has resided at the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid since 1992.
