Critic and art historian Andrew Graham-Dixon travels from southern to northern Spain to tell the story of some of Europe's most exciting and vital art. In the final episode of the series, Graham-Dixon reveals how the north of the country has produced some of the most dazzling and iconic art of the modern age. He shows how Spain's turbulent history has shaped its artists, from Francisco Goya and Pablo Picasso through to Joan Miro and Salvador Dali. As well as the giants of painting Graham-Dixon argues that Spanish architecture is the art form taking the nation forward into the new millennium.
