The Prado inside a dome at Plaza de España
Light and Verse is an immersive show by Fundación Unicaja, created by 3,2,1 Imagine, set up at Plaza de España in Córdoba from October 30 to November 8, 2026. Inside a 360º geodesic dome with circular seating for 100, large-format projections display 22 Prado Museum masterpieces, including Velázquez's Las Meninas, El Greco's The Gentleman with the Hand on His Chest, and Goya's The Nude Maja. Meanwhile, a live string quartet plays, verses by Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Machado, and Lorca are recited, and aromatic ambient effects enhance the experience.
Before entering: the artist's studio and an AI portrait
The visit begins outside the dome with two areas: The Artist's Studio, a recreated artist's workshop with animated artworks, and a Time-Period Portrait with Artificial Intelligence, where visitors can take home a portrait inspired by the masters' styles. The full experience lasts about 90 minutes, and visitors are advised to arrive 50 minutes early to explore these spaces calmly. Photos and videos are not permitted inside. Not recommended for children under 4 (they can enter free if accompanied by an adult) or for those sensitive to flashing lights or epilepsy due to intense lighting and contrasts.
