Francisco Icaza: I want to go to the sea, and other ways of seeking freedom

I Want to Go to the Sea gathers the least-seen work of Francisco Icaza, an artist who moved through neo-figuration and geometric abstraction without ever standing still. The Museo del Palacio de Bellas Artes offers a fresh look at his work, shaped by his love of literature and poetry—an inheritance from his grandfather, the poet Francisco A. de Icaza, whom he portrayed in profile. It is a show for discovering someone many know by name but few up close. With ArtGuide you follow his evolution piece by piece.
