Francesc Torres (Barcelona, 1948) is, without doubt, one of the most important European artist of his generation.

The title of the piece I am writing about comes from a sentence in Arthur Koestler’s Darkness At Noon, and it conveys in a nutshell the overwhelming disregard that History has, in its Hegelian sense, for the individual human being.

This book ––and the homonymous exhibition–– explores the work of artists who attempted to keep alive the expanded possibilities opened up for the arts of painting and sculpture by what was called Cubism in Paris between 1911 and 1914.  This little community of artists refused to accept that recording the war or producing propaganda was their duty.  They refused to forget the excitement of 1911-14, and kept faith in their independence as individuals as this war of machines threatened to rob every front-line soldier of his humanity and to draw even foreigners in France into “total w

Louise Bourgeois was an immensely influential sculptor and one of the iconic figures of twentieth and early twenty-first century art. She died in May 2010, aged ninety-eight. In the last year of her life, she invited the artist Alex van Gelder to stay at her New York town house and take photographs of her.

A painter of vast pieces in his early days -in the main works intended for salons and national exhibitions- Joaquín Sorolla (Valencia, 1863-1923) very soon developed a style of painting outdoors of his own which, though not connected stylistically with the Barbizon School, nevertheless pursued the same postulates, as a result of which he came to be known as a Spanish Impressionist painter.

The publication of Dalí in 1975 was without doubt a landmark in the extensive bibliography on Salvador Dalí. There were two factors that aided Luis Romero in his endeavour: firstly, the active support of the artist himself, who helped in selecting the materials and who produced the series of calligraphic texts that preceded each of the sections in the book; and secondly, his decades of long talks and conversations with Dalí.

The painting of Rufino Tamayo has acquired decisive importance in contemporary art in terms both of its high quality, maintained throughhout a long, intense life, and its special sifnificance.
