Painting and other stories
Paco Barragán
Like no other artistic platforms, the art fairs provide us with the latest and most audacious art novelties. Painting is back in fashion assuming a leading role. If during the 90's the motto was "everything counts except painting", today motto is "everything counts if it is painting". Nevertheless, we do need to question, what type of painting?
