Until January 13 MNAC presents one of its rooms balance results pictures of kitchens in a singular achievement: the recovery of a painting of the museum's collection, thanks to a careful study and a thorough restoration has revealed as an important piece of Maíno John the Baptist (1581-1649), Spanish painter of the Golden Age which helped spread pictures of kitchens the naturalistic style of Caravaggio on the Iberian Peninsula. Beyond the exhibition content and happy ending that explains it, the operation is excellent and unique, especially the way it has supported: BNP Paribas Foundation has sponsored the restoration pictures of kitchens and has fully assumed the cost , 30,000. The figure quite high, explained by the poor condition pictures of kitchens in which it was painting, he had even suffered the effects of fire. Without this critical support, the recovery would have been much longer, or even could have been frozen in the hope of having the necessary funding. The Conversion of Saint Paul, reclaimed the title of the work, thus becomes a model of good practice and an example to follow in the relationship between museums and companies, the necessary collaboration between public and private sector. It is, however, an isolated or unusual case? As far as the involvement of businesses and individuals in the financing pictures of kitchens and promotion of museums, art centers and private properties?
When discussing pictures of kitchens the shortcomings and handicaps of the Catalan museums, there are always complaints about the low participation of business in the financial support of public schools and the reluctance or reticence often faced with requests for help for specific initiatives. Against pictures of kitchens this background, almost always targeted the expected reform pictures of kitchens of the law of patronage as the ultimate solution that should help dissolve the resistances of companies. Reform, but not just ever so discussed in an eternal struggle between the Ministry of Culture and Finance always just whoever has the key of the box and the upper hand.

The system Catalan museums, despite some exceptions, has a structural dependence excessive public spending is a devastating, overwhelming reality. So is that the percentage of private participation in the financing of most institutions fails in many, far removed from what should be considered pictures of kitchens minimally acceptable or desirable. But this picture is really very different from that offered in most European countries in our environment? And this is not to downplay the situation by recalling that the problem is widely pictures of kitchens shared (the classic evil muchos, consuelo fool). What I noted is that the shortcomings of our situation is not cyclical but a problem of pattern and line.
There is no doubt that reform of the law of patronage is absolutely essential to try private participation in public pictures of kitchens museums reach percentages somewhat decent, but I do not have much faith that this change achieves miracles. pictures of kitchens Not because we have a law more favorable private participation levels pictures of kitchens will rise once enviable as it has in English-speaking countries and especially the United States. For this to be achieved to reach someday should be applied before significant changes in our cultural model and get s'afiancessin successfully. The philanthropic tradition that U.S. companies have not come from one day to another. Therefore, although a proper reform of the law can do to significantly increase donations, public institutions should continue to find ways to get more or less imaginative new resources. pictures of kitchens And before the current revenue crisis, it is likely that these formulas are increasingly unorthodox and can reach over more than once, the red lines of what we consider acceptable today in a museum. Wait and see.
Moreover, the story that we have outlined so far does not consider revolutionary changes that can contribute in this scenario the new digital society and social networks. And Xavier Fine alert in this interview to newspaper Ara, because the reform of the law of patronage is really useful should consider new forms of financing that have emerged recently, such as crowdfunding or crowdfunding, a very effective way to meet cultural projects pictures of kitchens outside the traditional funding systems which have already noted some small museums, such as the Museu Abelló Mollet.
