Summary: | Francis Bacon is arguably the most well-known British artist after J.M.W Turner, and his centenary in 2009 has been well documented in both the art world and the mass media. The BBC archive contains a comprehensive range of interviews and footage of the artist. To commemorate the centenary, the Tate has put together the third retrospective on Bacon (the previous ones were in 1962 and 1985 and were also held at the Tate), which has brought together some of his best works from different periods of his life. ibis extensive exhibition then moves to the Prado (Madrid) from 3 February-i 9 April 2009, and on to the Metropolitan Museum in New York from 18 May-6 August 2009. |
