Ubu the Painter Alfred Jarry and the Arts Museu Picasso
The Museu Picasso in Barcelona presents Ubú the Painter. Alfred Jarry and the Arts, an exhibition that examines the influence and impact of Alfred Jarry's work on art and literature from the end of the 19th century through to the present day. A careful selection of works by contemporary artists as well as later figures, including David Hockney, Robert Wilson and William Kentridge, allows the exhibition to highlight the connections between this French playwright and creators from his inner circle, such as Henri Rousseau, Paul Gauguin, Pablo Picasso, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec and Joan Miró.
Jarry, creator of the iconic Ubu Roi in 1896, profoundly influenced the avant-garde of the 20th century. His satirical and provocative vision inspired movements such as Surrealism and Dadaism, which saw in him a pivotal figure when it came to breaking with established norms. The exhibition traces this impact through paintings, engravings and documents that reveal how his legacy lives on in contemporary art.
An exhibition that merges theater, literature and visual arts, celebrating Jarry as a forerunner of modern thought and an influential cultural agitator.

Seny i rauxa News of Catalan Architecture Disseny Hub Barcelona
An exhibition that offers a broad and evocative journey through recent Catalan architecture, highlighting its richness, diversity and historical continuity. The narrative is built around an unbroken thread linking the founding of the School of Architecture in 1875 with contemporary practices and sensibilities, spanning generations, styles and shifting contexts. The exhibition moves away from a chronological reading in favour of a thematic structure that invites visitors to observe, engage in dialogue and compare works from different periods. The itinerary, on view at the Disseny Hub Barcelona, brings together sketches, plans, models and photographs that reveal the architectural creative process, often invisible to the general public, and is enriched by artistic and design works that build bridges between disciplines and visual languages. With around four hundred pieces, the exhibition offers a choral vision that understands architecture as a living organism, where seny and rauxa coexist to shape collective identity and imagine new ways of inhabiting the future.
