Back in the mid-nineteen nineties, a young Misha Bies Golas (Lalín, Pontevedra, 1977) discovered the CGAC out of a sort of impulse and curiosity for the institution that had just been founded in Santiago de Compostela.

An unrivalled figure in the context of Galician culture, Anton Reixa (Vigo, 1957) is not easy to classify. What best defines him is his umbilical relationship with language and the ways in which this becomes an instrument of poetic and socio-political creation, in support of a musical activity that outlined a unique territory in the emergence of ruptures in the Galician and Spanish scenario of the nineteen-eighties, first with Os Resentidos and then Nación Reixa and solo adventures, and finally, in multimedia work which is what has led to the exhibition he is now presenting at the CGAC.

The Royal Galician Academy of Fine Arts is dedicating the 2026 Galician Arts Day to José Suárez (Allariz, 1902), Galicia’s most international photographer.
