     Organised by Tate, London, in collaboration with Museo Picasso Málaga, Bacon, Freud and the School of London will present the work of a group of painters who shared similar concerns in the representation of the human figure in everyday life, in their own surroundings. Active in the second half of the twentieth century in London, these artists conveyed the fragility and vitality of the human condition. 
Lucien Freud's Girl with a White Dog

     Curator of the exhibition Elena Crippa, says: “for a long time, their work appeared to clash with the prevailing artistic discourse, but over the last few decades their art has been reassessed and granted a central position as part of a fuller and more complex understanding of art and culture from the post-World War II period”. Alongside works by Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud, the exhibition includes paintings and drawings by Michael Andrews, Frank Auerbach, David Bomberg, William Coldstream, R. B. Kitaj, Leon Kossoff, Paula Rego and Euan Uglow.
