Born in Manila in 1924 to the illustrious Spanish-Filipino clan, Fernando Zóbel de Ayala y Montojo remains one of the revered modernist painters and educators in the Philippines, Spain and the USA.
His invaluable contribution to the arts is not only limited to his paintings but also his teachings, collections and his founding of the Ateneo Art Gallery in Manila (1961) and the Museo de Arte Abstracto Español in Cuenca (1966).
As he was a key figure in the art scene of the second half of the 20th century, Museo Nacional del Prado, with the Communidad de Madrid, pays tribute to Zóbel by exploring his work through two themes. The first theme comprises the studies he has made in museums around the world, especially in Prado, reconstructing his poetic and artistic journey with the Old Masters of the West. Second is the geographical and international nature of his exploration of the traditional arts of the Philippines, Japan and China that enabled him to discover his modernist style.
