Hop hop for art in Madrid! There are endless possibilities: from old medieval art, to the classics of Goya and Velazquez to the impressionist and the modern art. The Golden Triangle of Art: El Prado, Reina Sofia and the Thyssen. All are amazing museums (or as I would rather call them palaces of ART) in their own way.
The last things I've seen before leaving Madrid were:
Marc Chagall exhibition in Thyssen - all the colors are just beautiful and very cheerful. Knowing the history of Chagall's life one feels "obligated" to enjoy our picture-perfect lives! But what I really want to see now is the ceiling in the Paris opera, also done my Chagall!

The other one, much cheaper (free) was the light installations on the Plaza de Cibeles, right on the white City Hall building.
And of course there is Prado with its Hermitage exhibition. It is far from the real Hermitage feeling, but what I liked is how tasteful where all the walls and details prepared. May be even too trendy and tasteful . . . it felt like you are in the Benetton shop. Oh, well. Anyway, my eyes were only for Andre Derain, Franz von Stuck and Paulus Pottee:
