3. Flemish paintings by Iván Floro
The tablao Flamenco de Leones one of the most recent in the capital, offers the opportunity to see the interesting work of the popular costumbrista painter Iván Floro the author of the cover of the legendary album El madrileño del artista C. Tangana in which he fuses different musical styles, including flamenco. In this original and elegant tablao in a privileged location, a small palace in front of the emblematic Puerta de Alcalá, 15 large-format flamenco-themed canvases are displayed to accompany the majestic stairs that welcome visitors to the tablao. The paintings, from the bottom to the top, are rising in flamenco intensity, until reaching the total ecstasy of baile in the last oil painting.
Where: Flamenco de Leones
How to get there: Metro Retiro
Reservations: on the web site of the tablao
