The San Antonio Museum of Art and the Southwest School of Art & Craft are the starting point for the first retrospective exhibition of Fernando Botero¿s work in the United States since 1974. The exhibition, entitled ¿The Baroque World of Fernando Botero,¿ will feature 100 paintings, sculptures, and drawings selected from Botero¿s personal collection. This major exhibition opens in San Antonio on May 26, 2007, and will continue through August 19th. It will then travel across the United States through 2010. San Antonio, one of the country¿s most distinctive cultural centers, with a deep, enduring pride in Hispanic arts and artists, will be the first U.S. stop on a long-anticipated retrospective exhibition. Besides the show several activities involving the community will be held such as encounters, workshops and tours. Thanks to the initiative of Andrés Andujar, a Colombian based in San Antonio, the sculpture "Big Size Horse" was acquired for Librería Central, and will be installed during the summer.
