Memory
and Liberty at UMass Boston
The Memory and Liberty exhibit by Spanish artists Xaime Quessada and Acisclo Manzano was displayed on the fifth floor of the Healey Library March, 1 - 28. Originally organized by the Barcelona Museum of Art, the exhibition contains 20 paintings by Quessada and 24 sculptures by Manzano.
Both artists were actively involved in the political struggle for democracy in Spain in the 1960’s and 1970’s, and their experimental and modernist works presented a challenge to the traditionalist authoritarian orientation of the Franco Regime.
The Quesada painting shown above is titled El Caballo Rojo. UMass Boston and the Consulate of Spain cosponsored the exhibit. (Photo by Anne-Marie Kent)
