Juan Gris. Reconfiguring the modern gaze

The work of Juan Gris (1887-1927) has often been considered secondary and derivative; this video is a response to such affirmations, conveyed through an interview with Eugenio Carmona and María Dolores Jiménez-Blanco. Through a visit to the room dedicated to him at Museo Reina Sofía, the work of this painter is re-evaluated, showing it to be the real source of the notions of analytic and synthetic cubism, based on a conception of painting as a poetic analogy of the world.
