mirada a la colecciones

Spanish to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting art exhibition
Esta es una de las miradas posibles a las colecciones del Museu d’Art Contemporani d’Eivissa. Unas colecciones, iniciadas en 1964, en desarrollo gracias a los premios que la Bienal de Ibiza e Ibizagráfic han concedido a lo largo de los años, donaciones (como la realizada por Carl van der Voort en 1997), depósitos, legados y adquisiciones.

perspective on the collections

I think "mirada" refers here not to the actual fact of viewing or looking at the collections but to a way of looking at them, and that it really means something like "perspective": "one possible perspective on the collections". You could actually say "one of the possible ways of looking at the collections" or "one possible way of looking at the collections"; that would be OK, I think. A "mirada" is a view from a particular point of view.

"The Wellcome Trust Gallery offers a fresh perspective on the collections of the British Museum."
