El Guernica de Pablo Picasso sigue siendo motivo de estudio y reflexión desde muy diversos lenguajes e interpretaciones. Para mostrar algunas de las razones de la fascinación internacional por esta pintura, se propone un acercamiento al origen de la obra y a sus primeras consecuencias y metamorfosis. Mediante esta doble ponencia se presentan algunos de los aspectos más significativos de la génesis del Guernica, así como las consecuencias artísticas de la llegada de la obra de Picasso a Nueva York en 1939.
