#3. Enjoy the genius of Escher’s paintings

Impossible stairs that twist and defy gravity, two hands that are drawn simultaneously without anyone can know what is real and what a representation, figures that overlap and repeat themselves in hypnotic patterns … These are recurring works and motifs in the drawings of Maurits Cornelis Escher. A Dutch artist considered as a genius of surrealism.
His works inspired scenes from films such as Inside the Labyrinth (1986), Nightmare on Elm Street 5 (1989), or Origin (2010).
Escher helps you radically change your perspective of reality and discover the fascinating side of everyday things or recovering that magic with which you looked at the world when you were a child.
After its great international success, the exhibition is available to the public in the Palacio de Gaviria.

An exhibition enjoyed by the older ones, who will awaken good memories, as well as the younger ones.

Although you can enjoy alone, as a couple or with friends, if you have children is an opportunity to connect with them through something so appealing to all ages as is the comic.
