On 20 November the Museo del Prado will be inaugurating one of the largest exhibitions to be devoted to the work of Van Dyck (1599-1641) anywhere in the world and the first to be held in Spain.
In his working methods, Giambattista Piranesi was a precursor of the role played by architects and designers today. Now, for the first time, an exhibition at CaixaForum Barcelona highlights Piranesi’s modernity in an approach to his work never before taken.
Paul Gauguin’s flight to Tahiti, where he regained his primitive style via exoticism, is the guiding thread of the exhibition organized by the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza (Madrid, Spain).
Painter, drawer and sculptor, Fernando Botero (Medellín, Colombia, 1932) is the most highly acclaimed South American artist at work today. Comprising 80 works from the last 60 years, Fernando Botero: Celebration is set to be one of the most important anthologies of his art career to date. The exhibition is organized by the Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao (Spain).
Revered in his own time as a 'monarch' of painting, Piero della Francesca (1411/13-1492) is acknowledged today as a founding figure of the Italian Renaissance. In early 2013, The Frick Collection (New York, USA) will present the first monographic exhibition in the United States dedicated to the artist.
