Reina Sofía Museum opens Rojas exhibition on 11 November

Miguel Ángel Rojas exhibition opens on 11 November

The exhibition is listed in the museum's programme from 11 November 2026 to 15 March 2027. It is presented at the Sabatini Building, one of the two buildings that make up the museum's main site.

Rojas was born in Bogotá in 1946. The accompanying programme describes a practice concerned with Colombia's complex social and political issues, including narco-trafficking, violence and education. His work also addresses migration, decolonialisation and the exploitation of natural resources. The exhibition brings these strands together across a career lasting more than fifty years.

An inaugural conversation linked to the exhibition is scheduled for 10 November 2026. Curator María Wills Londoño, museum director Manuel Segade and Miguel Ángel Rojas are due to discuss the artist's career and practice. The museum's programme describes the encounter as part of its public programmes around exhibitions.

The official exhibition programme places the show alongside other temporary exhibitions opening in November, including La Menesunda According to Marta Minujín on 18 November 2026.

The Sabatini Building provides the exhibition setting

The Sabatini Building and Nouvel Building form the main site in Madrid. They provide access to the museum's collection, temporary exhibitions and public activities, while the exhibition programme identifies the Sabatini Building as the venue for The Night.

This link between venue and subject is direct: Rojas's exhibition is not a city-wide event borrowing the museum's name, but a temporary presentation installed in one of the museum's principal buildings. The setting also places a career shaped by questions of history, society and representation within an institution whose programme combines art exhibitions with film, performance, lectures and conversations.

The museum's main address is Calle Santa Isabel, 52, in Madrid. The Nouvel Building has a second access point on Ronda de Atocha, at the corner of Plaza del Emperador Carlos V. The operator's access and transport information identifies both entrances and explains how the two buildings are connected inside.
