100 after his death, Odilon Redon is a symbolist beloved by the French as much as Klimt is by the Austrian. Though, he still is an artist to be discovered, as his work is never ending mysterious and deep.
Now we have the opportunity to know him thanks to the Fundación Mapfre exhibition.

Sorolla Museum is a never ending treasure chest. Sorolla as a mature painter only produced good art: either big or small size, it was always good. There are so many works in his house-studio in several rows, that just re-ordering them is a guarantee of surprises and joy.

If Alighiero Boetti were alive today, he would be a 72-years-old kid-artist, eager to play and conquer the universe from his desk.
In the exhibition at Reina Sofía Museum his soul persists, either dynamic or idle, either player or philosophical, accomplice or provocative, deeply light or lightly deep, funny and nostalgic, smart and trivial. Above all, his dream of immortality is achieved.

"Locus Solus", a novel starred by strange machines and unlikely works of art, is the name of the villa where these treasures are hoarded. "Impressions of Africa" is about papier mache's adventures, similar to those by Le Douanier Rousseau.
Raymond Roussel was admired by Marcel Duchamp and Dadaists, surrealists around Salvador Dalí, the artists of the Pataphysical school... and so many more until today. After reading his eccentric literature, you won't be surprised that Raymond Roussel had been adopted by the most extravagant artists.

The Golden Fleece was the symbol of Burgundy's and Flemish power, afterwards of a family (the "Habsbourgs"), later of another one (the "Austrias"), and finally of the Kings of Spain, all dynasties mixed (Bourbon, Bonaparte and Savoy) until today.
Such continuity can't be explained without the magic of a name, the splendor of a symbol, the prestige of an institution. The exhibition "The Golden Fleece and its sovereigns" at the Fundación Carlos de Amberes tells us that story.

When we evoke Antonio López, two works are brought to our mind. A classic one: the "Gran Vía" on which he worked late in the 70's; a recent one, equally popular: the monumental head of his grand-daughters, greeting travelers at the Atocha Station. At the exhibit at Museo de Bellas artes de Bilbao, these works are not displayed, but we will enjoy "Flight over the Gran Vía", a most recent work related.
