One of the most breathtaking and well-conceived exhibitions at the Venice Biennale this year was Tàpies. The Eye of the Artist, at Palazzo Fortuny.
Curators Daniela Ferretti, Natasha Hébert, Toni Tàpies and Axel Vervoordt present an array of Tàpies' works intermingled with works from the artist's own collection and private home, including Picasso, Miró, Kline, Shiraga, Pollock and others. This exposition and, in some cases, juxtaposition, offers a rare glimplse into some of what inspired this amazing Spanish artist.
