This collection began to form more than 30 years ago through the organizations that preceded AENA in making decisions about investments in aeronautical infrastructure. Most of the paintings, sculptures, murals and graphic works that make up the Collection correspond, with some important exceptions, to the most recent Spanish and Ibero-American artistic production where the most significant trends of contemporary art are represented.

The selection shown at the MACA corresponds to an excellent generation of artists that represent the best of Spanish art from the last quarter of the twentieth century. The selected works stand out for their contemporaneity and expressive force and provoke an intense emotional impact on the viewer.
