Why never say, 'Botero, that's that fat-woman painter, isn't it?

Mons (Mons), a Walloon pinhead on the French border, became European Capital of Culture in 2015. To everyone's surprise. The city presents its umpteenth major exhibition this autumn and winter: Fernando Botero, beyond the forms.

3 questions are addressed in this story:

1) How does a small city like Mons get all that done?

2) Why never say: 'Botero, that's that fat-woman painter, isn't it?'

3) What do Colombians themselves think of their Botero?
