An exhibition of timepieces will be the setting for the presentation of Annie Leibovitz’s new royal portraits for the Banco de España’s collection
The Tyranny of Chronos exhibition will be the setting for the presentation of Annie Leibovitz’s portraits of the King and Queen of Spain and of the outgoing governor, Pablo Hernández de Cos. These are the two latest additions to the Bank’s portrait collection and for the first time photography is the medium used. Leibovitz’s portraits mark a turning point in a tradition that goes back to the institution’s inception, while echoing artists such as Goya – also included in the exhibition – who have approached these commissions fully aware of their artistic intentions. The exhibition will also include a heterodox selection of timepieces and works from the Banco de España Art Collection by artists from diverse backgrounds and historical moments who question and transgress the predominant conception of time in capitalist societies.
