Joaquin Sorolla Bastida has always been one of the Spanish painters who have captivated me the most. His way of capturing the sunlight and capturing it in his works in such a natural way that it could warm my skin is, without a doubt, one of his greatest values, as well as portraying with great mastery the customs and manners of the times he lived in.
Under the title «Sorolla, a new dimension» is offered in Barcelona, in the famous Casa Amatller, the exhibition of the famous artist, after the success achieved in Valencia.
This magnificent exhibition that brings to life the work and life of the painter has been extended until September 15, 2024 and is a must for all art lovers.
Sorolla is one of the most recognized masters of painting at the beginning of the century for his ability to revolutionize and innovate in the use of light and color.
He was born in Valencia on February 27, 1863 and his childhood was marked by the early death of his parents when he was only two years old.
It was his aunt Isabel -his mother’s sister- and her husband, who took him in along with his sister Concha.
At an early age, his art began to stand out and he soon began to study drawing and painting.
He became a prolific artist with international prestige and left more than 2,200 catalogued works, labeled as impressionist, post-impressionist and luminist.
