Picasso-Picabia Exhibition at Musee Granet

When Picabia declared, in 1922, that “Picasso is the only painter I love”, was it simply another example of Picasso’s gravitational pull? A measure of his decisive influence over 20th-century artists? Painting a more complicated picture, this exhibition aims to reflect the fact that, in addition to his love, Picasso was also the target of Picabia’s witticisms and pastiches.

Exploring fifty years of rich, diverse and uninterrupted artistic production, it features both masterpieces and sometimes lesser-known works by these two artists of Spanish heritage. Presented in an 800m². temporary exhibition space, some 110 works by these two artists echo but also occasionally clash and combine with each other.

Open from Tuesday to Sunday 10:00-19:00.
