The professor of History of Art Kosme de Barañano has donated to the Documentation Centre and Library of the UJI his important personal library, which has been deposited on the fifth floor of the building.   
  
For the last thirty years, Barañano has held important museum posts as deputy director of the Museo Nacional Reina Sofía, member of its Board of Trustees until 2006, executive director of the IVAM, and member of other advisory committees of Spanish museums such as El Prado and the Museo de Bellas Artes in Bilbao. He has also curated numerous exhibitions at the Venice Biennale, until the current edition. Barañano has organised exhibitions by artists such as Giacometti, Picasso, Zoran Music, Philip Guston, Manolo Valdés and Eduardo Chillida, and has donated to the UJI some catalogues dedicated and illustrated by the artists themselves. The vice-rector for Research and Transfer, Jesús Lancis, thanked and highlighted the professor's donation.

He has also donated a documentary corpus of great interest from his work as a director and as a member of the trustees of these museums, which will allow us to learn more about the cultural and museum policy of these institutions over the last thirty years.

The donation has been completed with a canvas by Ana Peters, dated in 1999, which belongs to the final stage of the German artist established in the Valencian Community, which is characterized by expressing feelings and moods through monochromatic abstraction. Ana Peters was an outstanding artist of the Valencian artistic scene of the last decades of the 20th century.

Carmen Lázaro, vice-rector for Culture and Institutional Relations, also thanked the donation at the signing of the agreement.  The painting will become part of the UJI's art collections.

Kosme de Barañano has highlighted the relationship he has had in recent years with Universitat Jaume I, with his participation in the Master's Degree in Contemporary Studies and Advanced Research and in the activities of the research group "Iconography and Art History", directed by Víctor Mínguez.  Barañano wanted to stress the importance of the documentation on his work and the fact that the library he has hoarded can be made available to researchers and students at the UJI.  He also expressed the need for intellectuals to generously share these assets.  For this reason, a representative exhibition of the donation has been organised on the first floor of the Library, organised by Vicent Falomir, its director, and Rosa Gómez.
