Obras maestras del arte italiano de entreguerras

The Mapfre Foundation hosts some of the Italian masterpieces of the XX century.

Easter holidays are coming, the perfect moment for a trip to Madrid where you can enjoy the many exhibitions that take place in the city during these months. Today we highlight “Retorno a la belleza. Obras maestras del arte italiano de entreguerras”, at Mapfre Foundation until the 4^th of June. The exhibitions show some of the Italian masterpieces of the first and second decade of the XX century, with artists such as Carrá, Morandi, Casorati, Donghi or De Chirico.

A period of time distraught by the Great War when the vanguards suggested a “return to order”, resuming classic techniques and giving a sense of modernism to realism. The exhibition dives into artistic movements like Metaphysical Art , the Novecento or magical realism, with beauty as the main theme. A turbulent age that these artists tried to counteract by giving a sense of equilibrium, calm and serenity to their work.
