This exhibition at Museo ICO presents Picasso's seminal 'Suite Vollard' in its entirety, alongside a selection of Spanish engravings and paintings from the museum's collection. It explores the evolution of Picasso's obsessions and showcases Spanish contemporary art from the latter half of the 20th century.
The Museo ICO inaugurates 'La Suite Vollard de Picasso y el grabado español en la Colección del Museo ICO', an exhibition that dialogues between Picasso's masterpiece of engraving, the complete 'Suite Vollard', and a curated selection of prints and paintings by significant Spanish artists. This includes works by figures like Juan Genovés, Eduardo Arroyo, Manolo Valdés, Miguel Ángel Campano, and Darío Villalba, who defined contemporary art in Spain during the second half of the 20th century. Composed of works acquired by the Instituto de Crédito Oficial (ICO) in the 1990s, the exhibition aligns with Museo ICO's core mission of conserving and disseminating its collections. It offers a rare opportunity to see artworks not typically on public display and to experience a complete 'Suite Vollard' in Madrid, a collection rarely exhibited in its entirety. The 'Suite Vollard', a landmark in contemporary engraving, comprises one hundred works created between 1930 and 1937, reflecting Picasso's personal and creative obsessions across themes like 'The Sculptor's Studio', 'The Battle of Love', 'The Minotaur', and portraits of Ambroise Vollard, showcasing various techniques such as etching, aquatint, drypoint, and burin.
The exhibition is open to the public with the museum's standard accessibility program, including guided visits and dynamized activities. Materials will be available in Easy Reading format, sign language interpretation (ILSE) on demand, and proposals designed for individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities.
