The History of Art with one of Spain's great popularizers: @ElBarroquista.

Anyone who has visited a museum or flipped through a book about art will have heard or read grandiose and categorical phrases like "We are facing the great masterpiece of the 20th century," "This artist is a genius," or "That painting changed the world." This conception of artistic creation—based on accepting a pre-established canon that favors specific styles and elevates certain names—far from promoting learning and making art more accessible, has constrained the enjoyment of the general public and conditioned their taste.

In this book, art historian Miguel Ángel Cajigal Vera—known as El Barroquista in his outreach work—proposes a new way to approach this discipline and invites us to enjoy art without prejudice and with complete freedom.

Another History of Art is a stimulating essay that opens the doors to the author's personal museum, where we will discover fascinating stories and very personal works, such as those by Maurizio Cattelan, Teresa Margolles, Piero Manzoni, or Fiona Banner, alongside well-known pieces by Guo Xi, Frida Kahlo, or Artemisia Gentileschi.

And after finishing the reading, we will understand why it’s okay if we don’t like Las meninas.
