Luz y sombra. Goya and Spanish Realism

This unique exhibition brings the groundbreaking oeuvre of Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746−1828) into dialogue with work by contemporaries and artists from later generations. With his fierce, gripping depictions of injustice, abuses and horrors of his time, Goya was the pivot in the development of a modernity firmly anchored in the Spanish realist tradition. Seventy artists — from the 18th century to the present — confront Goya’s expressive complexity and prove how his formal, conceptual and ideological legacy continues to intrigue, move and inspire.

Featuring artists such as, among others, Eugenio Lucas Velázquez, Ignacio Zuloaga, Pablo Picasso, José Gutiérrez Solana, Delhy Tejero, Jorge Oteiza, Antonio Saura, Eduardo Arroyo, Marisa González and Patricia Gadea.
With new work by, among others, Álvaro Perdices and Albert Serra.
Co-production AC/E Acción Cultural Española
In collaboration with Ministerio de Cultura de España: Dirección General de Patrimonio Cultural y Bellas Artes, Fundación Ibercaja, Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía en Mensajeros de la Paz
