Picasso and architecture, an exhibition at the Museu Picasso

How Cubism changed the way modern space was imagined.

ARTARCHITECTUREMUSEUM
  • Museu Picasso

The Museu Picasso hosts 'Picasso and Architecture,' an exhibition in the Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera neighborhood, exploring the mutual influence between the Málaga-born genius and modern architectural development. Through cubism, collage, and spatial fragmentation, the show examines how Picasso's visual language reshaped architectural space. The dialogue culminates in the section on his relationship with Le Corbusier, featuring specific cases like 'Guernica' for the 1937 Spanish pavilion and the friezes for the Col·legi d'Arquitectes de Barcelona in 1962, proposing a synthesis of painting and architecture.

The Planns tip

The Museu Picasso is on Carrer de Montcada, a street for a stroll before or after, with galleries and shops.
