Cultural recommendation for the weekend

“Heroines” exhibition at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and at the headquarters of the Caja Madrid Foundation

“If in the first part of the exhibition, in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the physical power of the heroines dominates, the second part, in the rooms of the Caja Madrid Foundation, explores the spiritual powers of magicians, martyrs and mystics, stigmatized often as witches, mad or hysterical.”
