Girls of Past Peeking into the Future

Girls at the window by Bartolomé Murillo and geometric abstraction by Piet Mondrian.
For the artistic avant-gardes of the 20th century to emerge, several centuries had to pass before artists experimented with new ways of understanding painting, drawing and sculpture. This work is a fantasy in which one of the squares in Mondrian's work opens like a window and two young girls appear looking out the window, a work by Murillo. The classic is always the basis of the contemporary.Francisco Goya's dog and René Margritte's floating men.
This work is a bridge between the surrealism of Magritte's works and one of the most emblematic works of Goya's “The Black Paintings” series in which the head of a dog is seen looking up in an arid landscape. Fantasy makes us generate images that have never existed. However, surrealism has always existed in the minds of artists. Goya's dog itself is a surreal image that joins the men who levitate to generate a new work where they coexist in a dreamlike world.
