The collective exhibition on LGTBIQ+ identities will be open until September 6 at the Palau del Marqués de Campo, following its success during the Gay Games 2026.
The City Museum, located in the Palau del Marqués de Campo in Valencia, has decided to extend the exhibition 'València Queer. Contemporary Artistic Identities' until September 6. The exhibition, which originated as one of the cultural proposals for the Gay Games Valencia 2026, brings together LGTBIQ+ creators linked to the Valencian territory.
Curated by Óscar Segrelles, the exhibition offers a journey through disciplines such as painting, sculpture, photography, installation, textile art, and illustration. According to the Valencia City Council, the positive reception from the public has been key to extending its initial schedule, turning the space into a meeting point between local memory and the global languages of contemporary art.
The visit is structured across nine spaces that begin with a collective prologue: fans intervened by the artists themselves, a gesture that connects Valencian tradition with diversity. The journey invites reflection on identities, bodies, affections, and memories from a plural and committed perspective.
Among the names featured in the exhibition is sculptor Miquel Navarro, National Prize for Plastic Arts, whose piece dialogues with the baroque architecture of the museum. Also participating are Antonio Ovejero, Carlos Corredera, Eva Máñez, Anna Maria Staiano, and Antonio Portillo, among others, each with their own perspective on identity and diversity.
Segrelles, a graduate in Fine Arts from the Universitat Politècnica de València and with studies at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar and the Sotheby's Institute of Art, has framed the exhibition as a tool for freedom, memory, and visibility. For the residents of Valencia, the extension represents an opportunity to engage with this proposal throughout the summer.
The exhibition will remain open until September 6 at the Palau del Marqués de Campo, with regular visiting hours. Entry is free, making it accessible to a wide audience interested in the new narratives of contemporary art.
