Your visit combines exhibitions and the architecture of a building rehabilitated for museum use. General admission announced by the center is free; Check the schedule to find out what you will find on your date.<\/p>\n<h2>Jos\u00e9 Guerrero and the center&#8217;s collection<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/centroguerrero.es\/jose-guerrero\/biografia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official biography<\/a> covers the training and international career of Jos\u00e9 Guerrero, born in Granada in 1914 and died in 1991, and explains the origin of the collection preserved by the center. His paintings allow us to observe how color and the relationships between shapes construct the space of the painting.<\/p>\n<p>It begins with the cartouches: title, date, technique and context help distinguish stages and works. The collection of an institution does not mean that its entire collection is on display simultaneously. Check the <a href=\"https:\/\/centroguerrero.es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official programming<\/a> if you want to see a specific work or exhibition.<\/p>\n<h2>The building and the tour through the rooms<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/centroguerrero.es\/el-centro\/sede\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">history of the headquarters<\/a> documents the building from 1892, its commercial and journalistic uses and the rehabilitation in 2000 by Antonio Jim\u00e9nez Torrecillas, with the collaboration of Gustavo Torner. The project adapts the rooms to the exhibition and works on the entry of light and the relationship with the monumental environment.<\/p>\n<p>Observe how the perception of space changes as you go up between rooms and how the architecture frames the city. Follow the indications of the exhibition and authorized areas: this page does not promise an open-access terrace, a &#8220;secret viewpoint&#8221; or a permanent chronological layout on all floors.<\/p>\n<h2>Entry and published times<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/centroguerrero.es\/visita\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visit page of the Jos\u00e9 Guerrero Center<\/a> announces free admission and this schedule:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Day<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Announced schedule<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Tuesday to Saturday and holidays<\/td>\n<td>10:30\u201314:00 and 16:30\u201321:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday<\/td>\n<td>10:30\u201314:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Non-holiday Mondays<\/td>\n<td>Closed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The same page indicates closure on Sunday afternoons and on December 24, 25, 31 and January 1.
