The discovery of “other” Chagall
Chagall. A Cry of Freedom has brought another vision of this great master of 20th-century painting to the public: beyond the fantasy of his scenes and his astonishing palette, this exhibition revealed the extent to which his work reflects his personal trajectory and, with it, all the drama of the 20th century: In photography, the exhibitions devoted to the Swede Christer Strömholm and the American Consuelo Kanaga, in Madrid and Barcelona, respectively, also provided an in-depth look at the work of two artists who, despite their importance in contemporary photography, were little known in Spain until now.
