About the Marlborough gallery:
The Marlborough art gallery started in London in 1946 and has branches in New York and Spain. Many of the artists they have exhibited and represented over the years are straight out of the art history books: Mary Cassatt, Paul Signac, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Paula Rego, RB Kitaj, Louise Bourgeois, Oskar Kokoschka, Henry Moore, Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud.
The Marlborough headquarters in Madrid was founded in 1992 with a celebrated inaugural exhibition showcasing the last ten years of Francis Bacon’s work. This was the last individual exhibition organized during the life of the artist, who died just six months before the exhibition opened.
Some of their recent shows feature significant Spanish and UK artists such as Luis Gordillo, Laura Anderson Barbata, Soledad Sevilla, Gillian Ayres, Riera i Aragó and David Rodríguez Caballero.
