The project to build the Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Centre for Catalan Painting in Sant Feliu de Guíxols was unanimously approved by the city council in May. The project on Spain's Costa Brava is the latest regional offshoot of the baroness's galleries. It has a construction budget of €1.5m and will be housed in a converted cork factory. On show will be a collection of 19th- and 20th-century Catalan paintings, which is currently housed in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid.
