Thirty four internationally renowned modern artists whose work is rarely seen together-including Pablo Picasso, Francis Bacon, Willem de Kooning, Alice Neal and others!!!!
Experience how these artists used paint to represent skin and express the emotional, sensual and tragic aspects of the human experience and used oil paint's visual and tactile properties to mirror those of the body, while exploring the body's capacity to reflect the soul (sounds like Art Therapy)
The exhibition exploits strong colors and vigorous brushwork associated with German expressionism.
Come see great figure paintings from private collections and museums around the world.
*After tour participants will be able to enjoy live Latin Jazz by the Felix Contreras Latin Jazz Trio, food, wine tasting, cash bar and discuss their thoughts on the Paint Made Flesh exhibition
