The Foundation 01/23/2017
A digital platform created to “host the world’s cultural treasures”, as stated by Google
©FPA
The Princess of Asturias Foundation has signed up to the Google Arts & Culture project, a digital platform developed by the Google Cultural Institute (Google received the 2008 Prince of Asturias Award for Communication and Humanities) that has made some of humanity’s most important cultural treasures and historic events available to a global audience.
The Foundation has put together an exhibition for this initiative comprising information about the institution and its awards, as well as on the activities of its Music Department. The exhibit includes a selection of images, texts and audio-visual material featuring Their Majesties The King and Queen of Spain, Laureates who have received the Princess of Asturias Awards, and the activities of its Music Department. One of the most notable items is the first public speech given by HM The King, then The Prince of Asturias, at the 1981 Princess of Asturias Awards Ceremony.
The organizations participating in the Google Cultural Institute also include a number of institutions that have been granted an award by the Foundation, such as the EFE Agency (Communication and Humanities 1995), the Museum of Human Evolution (the Atapuerca research team received the Award for Technical and Scientific Research in 1997), the Royal Spanish Academy (Concord 2000), the International Space Station (International Cooperation 2001), the British Council (Communication and Humanities 2005) and Yad Vashem (Concord 2007).
