Spain must be loving Pissarro this week. In the last seven days, the Pissarro blog counted 62 views from SPAIN!! Viewers from the US were a distant second at 14 views. www.artbookannex.com
No doubt, this is a result of PISSARRO, the extraordinary exhibition of his paintings currently at the Museo Thyssen Bornemisza in Madrid. After it closes on September 15, the exhibition will travel to Barcelona, CaixaForum, from 15 October 2013 to 13 January 2014. If you’re in Spain this summer, don’t miss it. This is a great opportunity to see paintings not often seen in exhibitions, including two from the Pitti Palace in Florence.
