The Echo of Picasso
In honor of the 50th anniversary of Pablo Picasso鈥檚 death (April 8, 1973), Almine Rech is pleased to present The Echo of Picasso, a wide-ranging group exhibition curated by Eric Troncy, spanning across its two locations in the city, opening November 8, 2023.
The exhibition offers two perspectives: one that revisits a time in history wherein Picasso's contemporaries sought to challenge his work, and a second in which living artists today echo the Spanish artist鈥檚 oeuvre. As Michael Fitzgerald* described, "instead of being a potential adversary in life, in death, Picasso became a voluminous encyclopedia of ideas and images for artists.鈥 50 years since Picasso's death, the contemporary works on view still echo the formal, technical, and conceptual inventions of one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. The exhibition also allows us to see Picasso in a contemporary perspective.
