FRANCISCO DE GOYA

The Fondation Beyeler is presenting one of the most important exhibitions ever devoted to Francisco de Goya (17461828) outside of S pain. Goya was one of the last major court artists and the first pioneer of modern art. He was both a painter of great portraits and an inventor of mysterious, personal pictorial worlds. It is precisely in these seemingly unresolvable contradictions that we discov er the magical fascination of Goyas art.
