1 Sustaining Fellows Your Passport to Travel SEPTEMBER 23 30, 2018 Spanish Painting and Sculpture WITH GLORIA GROOM, CHAIR OF EUROPEAN PAINTING AND SCULPTURE AND DAVID AND MARY WINTON GREEN CURATOR AND REBECCA LONG, PATRICK G. AND SHIRLEY W. RYAN ASSOCIATE CURATOR PASSPORT

2 Toledo, the city of three cultures. Dear Sustaining Fellows, I invite you to join me on an illuminating trip through Spain with Art Institute curators Gloria Groom and Rebecca Long. Thoughtfully planned by our curatorial guides, this exploration of art, architecture, and cultural delights in the vibrant capital of Madrid and surrounding cities will provide you with a truly bespoke journey you can only experience with Sustaining Fellows travel. Rebecca s intimate knowledge of Spanish culture in part due to her time spent living in Madrid coupled with the expertise she and Gloria share will not only enrich our understanding of the works we see in Spain s museums and private collections but will also provide insight into and deepen our appreciation of the Art Institute s own exceptional holdings of 15th- through 19th-century Spanish works. Our travels include a day trip to Toledo, where famed Renaissance artist El Greco found an enthusiastic patronage and was immortalized through several major commissions, including the Art Institute s remarkable Assumption of the Virgin ( ). An icon of our collection, this monumental painting is the inspiration for the museum s 2020 exhibition, tentatively titled El Greco: The Creation of Genius. This painting was originally created as the centerpiece of the main altarpiece within the Monastery of Saint Dominic of Silos, one of the many historic locations we will explore. In addition to viewing the brilliant paintings and magnificent architecture for which Spain is well known, we will also examine the traditionally understudied and overlooked artistic tradition of polychrome sculpture a style of painted and gilded wood sculpture that has been produced in Spain from the 15th century to today. We hope you will join us on this one-of-a-kind trip in search of Spain s artistic treasures. Warmest wishes, Margot Levin Schiff Trip Host Sustaining Fellows Travel Committee Chair
