Description: Madrid: Museo del Prado, 2014. 30cm., pbk., 344pp. illus. Exhibition catalogue. Spanish text. Summary: The exhibition shows the importance of the rediscovery that the figure of El Greco had for the development of painting in the 19th and 20th centuries. A selection of 25 works of the Cretan master with over 70 modern works shows the complexity and richness of the influence of El Greco in a period of radical transformation of painting. Both the exhibition and the catalog chart a path that starts from the consideration of El Greco in the nineteenth century through artists such as Manet and Cézanne, his influence, which was capital, on Picasso and Cubism, as well as the relationship with the central expressionisms. His influence in America (Orozco, Matta and Pollock) is also studied, and the anguished figurations of the 50s and 60s through artists like Bacon, Giacometti and Saura.
