Begoña Merino Gran. Directora de Arte. Fundación Titanic.

As Art Director of the Titanic Foundation and Curator of the macro-exhibition “TITANIC: The Reconstruction”, I would like to share with lovers and followers of the legend of the Titanic, the wonderful task of shaping and bringing the visitor to the exhibition, one of the most exciting, tragic and media events in world history.

Thank you for enjoying this experience, with the same enthusiasm that we at the Titanic Foundation put into each of the exhibition’s destinations.
