Spain Through the Eyes of Its Greatest Artists: Velasquez, Goya, and Picasso

Presenter: Linda Quigley (Instructor and Artist)

They were innovators, daring and successful, even in dangerous times.  Their images could be flattering or cynical, defiant or funny.  Francisco Goya’s work referred to the genius of Diego Velasquez. Centuries later, Pablo Picasso brought it full circle with his own variations on both.  This story is a revealing dialogue between three giant painters.  They tell us about Spain’s complex and sometimes dark history and the role of an artist as it changed through the centuries.
