Museu d’Art Contemporani d’Eivissa (MACE)

Museu d’Art Contemporani d’Eivissa, or MACE, occupies a historic building in Dalt Vila, Eivissa’s old town. The museum first opened in 1969. Its permanent collection explores the island’s creative and experimental art movement of the 1960s. Temporary exhibitions broaden that local perspective. Works by Tàpies, Miralles, Balearic artists, and international creators connect Ibiza with wider contemporary art. A notable engraving collection anchors the museum’s holdings. The building combines restored historic fabric with exhibition spaces for changing displays. MACE also presents workshops, seminars, talks, and guided visits led by artists and curators. Educational programmes examine symbolism, emotion, and learning. Its setting brings contemporary works into direct conversation with the walls and atmosphere of Dalt Vila. The collection includes artists from Ibiza, the Balearic Islands, and abroad. Some programmes have included an overnight museum experience surrounded by contemporary artworks. The museum’s exhibitions connect island history with contemporary artistic practice. Talks and guided visits explore the ideas behind displayed works. MACE offers a focused view of Ibiza’s creative community and its wider cultural connections.
