González in museums
Housed in the collections of major museums and institutions across the world, Julio González's work is accessible to a vast, international public. Several of González's works were acquired by museums like the MoMA or the MNAM (currently housed at the Pompidou Center) during his lifetime. However, the majority of his work entered collections from the 1950s, thanks to the vision of curators and the generosity of his daughter, Roberta González, who made a series of donations to institutions in France, Spain and beyond. These donations were supplemented by Carmen Martinez and Viviane Grimminger, the subsequent right-holders of the González Estate . Notably, their important donation of hundreds of works of art by Julio, Roberta and Joan González formed the nucleus of the Institut Valencià d'Art Modern (IVAM) Centre Julio González's collection. The IVAM holds the largest collection of works and archives of the González family. Their work to promote and defend the González legacy is pursued today by González Administration.
