¡Bienvenido, Mr. Carnegie! Arte español en las Internacionales de Estados Unidos (1898-1995)

Thousands of kilometers away, a hitherto unknown narration of contemporary Spanish art was written. In the city of Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania), the mogul of the steel industry, Andrew Carnegie, decided to finance, since 1896, a system of access to culture for the American people, which included a museum and, periodically, an exhibition where it was taught the best of western art: the Internationals. Spanish art was the protagonist in many of these editions, with the success of Zuloaga, Anglada Camarasa, Picasso, Dalí, Miró, Solana, Caviedes, Tàpies, Canogar, Feito, Saura, Rivera, Chillida, Susana Solano, Juan Muñoz or Cristina Iglesias , among others. This book analyzes the trajectory of more than a hundred Spanish artists, as well as their reception in the media and in the system of American galleries and museums. It was a process that culminated in the full integration of our art on the international scene, finally overcoming the topics and complexes of the past.
