New president for Miró Foundation

Sara Puig is the new president of the Miró Foundation, replacing Jaume Freixa, after ten years. Puig was elected by the board of trustees (of which she has been a member since 2013) to take the role on for four years. Her pedigree in the art world is strong. Between 1998 and 2012 she directed the Francisco Godia Foundation. Puig is also a patron of the Amigos Foundation of the Prado Museum and the Fundació Orfeó Català-Palau de la Música and has a voice in the governance councils of other national and international artistic institutions. At the board meeting held yesterday, two new members were also approved: cultural consultant Laia Gasch and politician and economist Andreu Mas-Colell. The Board of Trustees currently has 19 members, including members from the Barcelona City Council, the Generalitat and the Ministry of Culture, as well as the artistic world and civil society.
