Spain: Passion for the Past, Inspiration for the Future

Spanish Artists

This section of the CultureQuest contains information on some of the important artists in Spanish history including El Greco, Diego Velazquez, Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miro, and Salvador Dali.

Click on the PowerPoint presentation below for more information about each artist, as well as samples of their work.

I have developed a middle school curriculum unit to accompany this CultureQuest that integrates curriculum standards from art, world languages, and technology. In the unit, students conduct internet research on one of the Spanish Artists, design a newsletter about the artist in Microsoft Publisher, and create a PowerPoint presentation about the artist to present to the class. Click on the link to the unit for more information.
