The Museum Carmen Thyssen Málaga (Málaga, Spain) will open tomorrow an exhibition that features the work of Hermen Anglada-Camarasa, one of the most important Spanish painters of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
The principal aim of this exhibition organized by the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza (Madrid, Spain) is to offer an analysis of the practice of painting outdoors as a factor within the transformation and modernisation of 19th-century art. In general, this practice is generally associated with Impressionism.
George Bellows (1882–1925) was regarded as one of America’s greatest artists when he died, at the age of 42, from a ruptured appendix. His early fame rested on his powerful depictions of boxing matches and gritty scenes of New York City’s tenement life, but he also painted cityscapes, seascapes, war scenes, and portraits, and made illustrations and lithographs that addressed many of the social, political, and cultural issues of the day.
Artworks and literary works from all over Europe and America have been gathered together at the Museo Picasso Málaga (Spain) for The Grotesque Factor, an exhibition that has been devised as a journey through the complex areas of what is known, in terms of art and aesthetic taste, as the grotesque.
As part of the Science Week, which will take place from 5 to 18 November, the Museo del Prado offers the opportunity to visit one of its leading centers of research which is devoted to restoration and conservation works: the Office of Technical Documentation.
