Museo Picasso Malaga 'The Picassos from Antibes'

Temporary exhibitions:
The Picassos from Antibes13 March - 11 June 2006

When in 1946 Picasso received the offer to use one of the great rooms in the castle at Antibes as a studio, he exclaimed enthusiastically: "I'm not only going to paint, I'll decorate the museum too". The result was a series of paintings and drawings - on rather unusual supports due to the shortage of materials in the post-World War Two period - that reflected the jubilant spirit, the joie de vivre.
The Picassos from Antibes is an exhibition never before seen in Spain, comprising a great selection of the most outstanding works from the museum collection, a large number of works having never been shown beyond the museum’s walls. These include the murals Joie de Vivre (The Joy of Life) or Antipolis (1946), The Sea Urchin Eater (1946) and the impressive sculpture Head of Woman with Chignon (1932). In all, 73 works, featuring paintings, drawings, sculptures and ceramics that serve to illustrate a splendid period in Picasso's artistic career, and which will be presented to the Spanish public at the Museo Picasso Málaga.
