staff
Ismael Smith (1886-1972): Barcelona, París, Nova York, is an exhibition dedicated solely to the work of this Barcelona born Catalan artist who died in New York. This exhibition, which includes plaster and bronze sculptures, satirical sketches, illustrations and engravings (on at Palau Antiguats until January 31) brings the artist one more step away from falling into obscurity and charts his development in the three cities in which he developed as an artist.
Over one hundred of his works have been brought together for this exhibition, many of which have never before been displayed to the public. His unfinished projects, the themes he worked around such as folklore and bullfighting; his nudes, portraits, mythological and religious pieces, all of it is on display at the exhibition at Palau Antiguats, which manages to display the great depth and breadth of Smith’s artistic register.
