""Portrait of Human Knowledge" unique portrait of human knowledge, a vivid account of some of the great creators of the 20th century, the force of creation in all fields, something of a tribute to art and its geniuses from the music of María Callas and Igor Stravinski to the cinema of Chaplin, the literature of Lorca or Neruda and Kafka, the dance of Nureyev, the philosophy of Nietzsche, but also a tribute to the science of Einstein, Freud and Madame Curie or to the delivery to the others of Mother Teresa of Calcutta.All of them, such as Anne Frank, Janis Joplin, Marlene Dietrich, Eva Perón, Truman Capote, again Frida, Coco and Diego, among others, are the imprint of a mythological reliquary, elevated to a secular holiness, and "they testify to their passion and dedication to Beauty beyond their commitments", as the author maintains.But it is also a story of our great references, a summary of the encyclopedia of life that any human being should know to understand and the meaning of the last century36. To them, with whom he has lived for months in his studio, studying their life and the most definitive of their works, Cabellut addresses with an intimate air of familiarity, trying to reach the strength of his passion, trying to touch those just for an instant."
