Fundación Juan March Unveils ‘It Must Be Seen’ Exhibition in Madrid

The ‘It Must Be Seen. The Independence of Color in Abstract Art’ exhibition, organized by the Juan March Foundation in Madrid, is now open and will be available to visit until June 8, 2025.

Starting on February 28, an exhibition showcases pieces by artist Felipe Pantone, including ‘Subtractive Variability Circular 43’ and the site-specific artwork titled ‘Chromadynamica Transvelum’. Notably, this UV ink on fabric creation stretches across seven meters in length and four meters in width, adorning the main staircase. It generates an eye-catching dance of light and color as it spans the space.

Under the guidance of Manuel Fontán del Junco and María Zozaya Álvarez, with contributions from David Batchelor and Paul Smith, this exhibition showcases trailblazers in color theory, such as Piet Mondrian, Josef Albers, and Yves Klein. It also features significant contributors to minimalism and geometric abstraction, like Frank Stella, Bridget Riley, Donald Judd, Sol LeWitt, Jose María Yturralde, Richard Serra, along with artists delving into color perception, such as Olafur Eliasson, Carlos Cruz-Díez, Anish Kapoor, Peter Halley, Ugo Rondinone, and Dan Flavin.
