1. The Goya Catalogue

The catalogue for the exhibition Luz y sombra. Goya and Spanish Realism, published by Pelckmans for EUROPALIA ESPAÑA, showcases engravings and paintings by Francisco de Goya (1746–1828) alongside works by other Spanish artists from the 18th to the 21st century. Between light and shadow, his vision of reality continues to influence art and the image of Spain. The artist has become a symbol of Spanish identity. This catalogue explores the nuances of that identification as well as lesser-known aspects of his career.

Visit the exhibition at Bozar until 11 January 2026.

2. The Comic Book Licht & Schaduw by Bart Proost

Licht & Schaduw delves into the complex and dramatic life of Francisco de Goya, considered one of the most radical artists in history. Between refined portraits for the court and dark images of the human condition, his work explores the contradictions of his era and his own life.

The album combines biography, historical context, and an expressive artistic approach, offering an immersive look into the creative process of the Flemish author Bart Proost. Available in Dutch, in a deluxe edition with cover and ex-libris, it is a visual and well-documented tribute to Goya, perfect for art and comic book lovers seeking a narrative that is both profound and spectacular.

The book is available in Dutch at Bozar’s bookshop.
