During its 20th anniversary, the Vila Casas Foundation presented three catalogs for the first time - sculpture, painting and photography - that exhaustively documented its extensive collection, which then totaled 4,500 works.
Publication of the book Girando hojas de un álbum. Veinte años de la Fundació Vila Casas 2000-2020
Girando hojas de un álbum, written by Glòria Bosch i Mir, it approaches the history of the Fundació Vila Casas in the first person and as a dialog constructed from memory, words and memory with its founder, Antoni Vila Casas.
