Antonio López
Antonio López--also known as Antonio López García--is hyper-realism's greatest living exponent, and one of the finest painters of the past hundred years. Published on the occasion of the artist's landmark exhibition at the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid, this generous overview constitutes a self-portrait of a genuine icon of contemporary painting. It spans the years from 1953 to the present, placing an emphasis on works made after 1993 (the year of the artist's last retrospective exhibition in Spain, at the Reina Sofia Museum). These more recent pieces include masterworks such as "View of Madrid from the Vallecas Fire Tower" (1990-2006) and the monumental heads "Day," "Night" and "Wom...
Highlights of Art
The phenomenal painting collection of the Thyssen-Bornemisza family, which contains substantial holdings in Northern and Italian Renaissance, the Italian Baroque, modern, and contemporary painting, is now housed in Madrid. The present catalog features good- quality color reproductions of each painting, with a page or two on each artist's biography and the collection's work. A short introduction tells the history of the collection and its new building. Perez-Jofre, who worked with the collection for six years following its installation in the Palacio Villahermosa, is an independent art historian. c. Book News Inc.
Pop Art Myths
The Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza is presenting Pop Art Myths, the first exhibition on this subject in Madrid since Pop Art at the Museo Reina Sofía in 1992. More than twenty years later, the exhibition’s curator Paloma Alarcó, Head of Modern Painting at the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, will offer a reassessment of this artistic trend from a 21st century viewpoint. Featuring more than 100 works ranging from pioneering British Pop Art to the classic American version and its expansion into Europe, the exhibition aims to trace the shared sources of international Pop Art and to undertake a revision of the myths that have traditionally defined the movement. It will reveal how the legendary images cre...
Picasso, Lautrec
Henri Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901) y Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) nunca se conocieron. Cuando el jovencísimo Picasso visitó París por primera vez, en octubre de 1900, Lautrec ya estaba muy enfermo y moriría prematuramente un año después. A pesar de ello, la obra radical de Lautrec, la iniciativa de integrar alta y baja cultura, el arte y la publicidad, que supuso un modo de entender la modernidad, produjo un impacto muy potente en el joven Picasso. A través de él Picasso descubrió el pluralismo de la sociedad moderna que condicionó su modo de entender el arte y derivó en una nueva percepción creativa.0A pesar de ser bien conocidas estas afinidades, Picasso/Lautrec es el primer estudio comparativo de estos dos grandes maestros de la modernidad.00Exhibition: Museo Nacional Thyssen - Bornemisza, Madrid, Spain (17.10.2017-21.01.2018).
