"Once again the regional government and Cartagena rages," with these words referred to by the socialist regional deputy, Antonio Martínez Bernal, the Government's decision to sell the land Valcárcel annex to the Regional Museum of Modern Art located in the city port.
"Two years ago the region of Murcia has reached an agreement with Fernando Gallego, owner of the collection Marifí Places. The collection consists of 400 pieces by composers as important as Dalí, Picasso, Antonio Saura. This collection has been exhibited in Berlin, New York, Warsaw and Belgrade has to be exhibited together, that was the condition of Fernando Gallego to bring the collection to MURAM, "said Antonio Martínez Bernal.
"So the Autonomous bought land annexed to the Palacio de Aguirre by 2.6 million to expand the museum and to house the works, land that now makes the sale by eliminating any possibility of bringing exposure to Cartagena and expand the museum in the future. "
The regional deputy socialist regretted that the region "does not consider what properties should or should not sell because the sale of this particular prevents MURAM become the museum of modern art in the Murcia region," he Bernal Martinez explained.
"Once again the regional government attacks the interests of Cartagena and determines the future of the Region of Murcia, breaking the agreement reached with the owner of exposure, thereby preventing MURAM growth," concluded the deputy regional socialist .
