Baroque World of Fernando Botero August 29, 2008

This retrospective exhibition includes nearly 100 paintings, drawings, and sculptures drawn from Fernando Botero's personal collection. These works reveal the influence of Botero's Colombian background on his work. Themes of religion and violence, mysterious still lifes, larger-than-life sculptures, and tributes to the master artists he most admired offer a comprehensive look at Botero's extensive oeuvre.
