  From Montmartre to Montparnasse Catalan artists in Paris 18891914 Museu Picasso

  We all have an image of what Paris was like at the beginning of the 20th century: a place where bohemia brought together the best international artists of the time and where avant-garde experimentation flourished. Now this image is brought to life in an exhibition that, through the work of painters, engravers, illustrators, musicians, performers, writers, journalists and other Catalan figures who were there, captures their perceptions of the city of light at the time. The Picasso Museum has brought together an exhibition featuring artists such as Santiago Rusiñol, Ramon Casas, Isidre Nonell, Pablo Picasso, Joaquim Sunyer, Lluïsa Vidal, Laura Albéniz, Pau Casals, Isaac Albéniz, Enric Granados, Joaquim Nin, Maria Gay and Jaume Brossa to lead us through different aspects of Paris at the turn of the century, specifically between the Universal Exposition of 1889 and the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. We can explore the urban and human landscape of the time and the artists' work and leisure in the two urban poles marked by artistic life: Montmartre at the end of the 19th century and Montparnasse at the beginning of the 20th century. A unique opportunity to see the work of the best Catalan artists from the beginning of the last century.

  Sean Scully La Pedrera

  This exhibition dedicated to the celebrated contemporary artist Sean Scully is a unique opportunity to discover his powerful abstract compositions and his intense use of color. The exhibition is on display at La Pedrera and explores the multiple facets of his work, where geometries and chromatic nuances are in dialogue with Gaudí's unique architecture. A visual experience that combines modern art and historical heritage.

  Scully is one of the great names in contemporary abstraction and has developed an unmistakable pictorial language based on stripes, lines and color blocking that evoke both emotions and architectural structures. His artistic process, which combines overlapping layers of paint and a palette rich in transparency, creates a unique depth that generates a powerful impact.

  The exhibition brings together more than sixty works, including paintings, sculptures, watercolors, pastels and photographs, and offers a journey through more than six decades of artistic production. From his figurative beginnings in the 1960s to his characteristic minimalism of the 1970s and his current consolidation, the exhibition offers an insight into the evolution of a master of color and abstraction.

  As a special feature, a large-scale sculpture created for the occasion is on display in the courtyard of La Pedrera, emphasizing the dialogue between Scully's work and Gaudí's iconic building.
