註釋The exhibition "Art and cultures of al-Andalus, the power of the Alhambra" focuses particularly on the Kingdom of Granada, covering the period from the beginning of the 11th Century until the twilight of al-Andalus at the end of the 15th Century. The contributions made by Hispanic Christians and Jews are also represented in a total of over 300 pieces displaying the importance and wealth of Andalusian culture.The Alhambra itself is the main exhibit in an exhibition that presents the monument as a symbol of the political, economic and social history of the last Andalusian emirate in the Iberian Peninsula, as well as a literary, poetic, tourist and cultural reference. This exhibition is organized by the Consortium for the Commemoration of the First Millennium of the Kingdom of Granada, the Council of the Alhambra and Generalife and the al-Andalus Lgacy Foundation.The exhibition is curated by Rafael López Guzmán, José Miguel Puerta Vílchez and Ma Jesús Viguera Molins, and over 70 institutions and a number of private collections have taken part by lending their pieces.
