AGRITURISMO I PITTI

After Marc Chagall and Juan Miró, the Palazzo Blu Foundation in Pisa has chosen Pablo Picasso, the extraordinary artist who fathered the cubist movement.

The Foundation's aim is to bring to Pisa those artists whose backgrounds, culture and evolution revolve around the Mediterranean.

After Chagall (who produced much of his art in Southern France) and Miró (with his colours of Catalonia) the Foundation chose Picasso because of his struggle against the canonical history of art and his attempts to reproduce extremely creative shapes, never seen before.

“I wanted to be a painter and I became Picasso”: this quotation by the artist (reported by his fiancée) was inspirational for the organization of the exhibition. Picasso's works reveal the painter's evolution from the realistic to the abstract phase, through the blue and pink periods.

“Creativity’s worst enemy is good taste”: this sentence is key to understanding the Spanish genius's exhibits on show at Palazzo Blu.

The exhibition will run from 15 October 2011 to 29 January 2012.
