Fundació Vila Casas is a non-profit organization created in 1986 to finance projects promoting modern arts and medical research. Its founder was Antoni Vila Casas, a Catalan pharmaceutical entrepreneur and one of the richest people in Spain.
Today, the foundation supports three museums located in Catalonia: Can Framis, the museum of modern painting in Barcelona, Can Mario, the museum of modern sculpture in Palafrugell, and Palau Solterra, the museum of modern photography in Torroella de Montgrí.
The museum of Palau Solterra opened in 2000 in a 15th-century palace that was once the residence of Counts of Torroella de Montgrí. The collection boasts over 200 photographic works by artists from all over the world.
