Goya In A Hospital?

Cultura en Vena Foundation had the artistic idea of turning Goya into another visitor to the sick people from hospitals. The exhibition presents reproductions of works from the Prado Museum, such as country prints, costumbrista or children. They collected the cartoons that the artist painted for the Royal Tapestry Factory, commissioned by Carlos III to decorate the walls of the palace with "playful and pleasant affairs". The images, explains the Foundation, are accompanied by texts specially created to connect with the experience that the patient and his family are going through, as well as that of the medical staff, and propose approaches that range from educational to emotional, from popular to deep approaches.
