‘De la poesía a la palabra; de la palabra a la calle’ en el Centro Niemeyer
Until May 5th, the Centro Niemeyer in Asturias is holding the exhibition ‘Joan Brossa & Alain Arias-Misson. De la poesía a la palabra; de la palabra a la calle’. This exhibition displays close to a hundred works by both artists that explore the intellectual and creative relationship between Brossa and the Belgian poet Arias-Misson. The exhibition, which aims to pay homage to Joan Brossa and the poetic and artistic perception of art, is about words, about converting poetry into something more tangible, about the public and private realities defined by both Brossa and Arias-Misson.
‘Floridablanca, la sombra del rey’ in Murcia
Until April 28th, the Palacio del Almudí and Sala Verónicas in Murcia will be holding the exhibition ‘Floridablanca, la sombra del rey’ (Floridablanca, in the king’s shadow) which recreates the imaginarium portrayed in the works from the time of Floridablanca. The exhibition will display close to 300 works of art, including paintings by Goya, Mengs, Batoni, Tiépolo, Maella and Bayeu. The number of art pieces alone makes this one of the largest exhibitions in recent years dedicated to Charles III and eighteenth century Spain.
