A Coruña

The exhibition will be a unique opportunity for all kinds of audiences to approach the work of Pablo Picasso, demonstrating how the A Coruña period was transcendental in his future and how it was essential in the themes and iconographies of later periods. Objectives:

To introduce the public to the painter's period in A Coruña and to underline the importance of his artistic career during his period in A Coruña.

To learn about the different stages of Pablo Picasso's production.

To get to know the different iconography and themes in his work.

To highlight the educational work of the museum, as a cultural centre that promotes and values the career and work of the artists.

Family and youth workshops     

Activities specially designed to get to know and delve into Picasso's work with a methodology that understands art as a process and that will focus on the process and not on the final result, thus allowing participants to express thoughts and feelings, explore freely, make decisions and take risks in an artistic world where judgements do not exist.

Description:

Workshops for families.

Saturdays 15, 22 and 29 April, 6, 13, 20 and 27 May and 3, 10 and 17 June; from 6pm to 7.30pm.

The idea is for participants to develop their own creations using different works from the temporary exhibition on Pablo Picasso as contextualisation, in such a way that they serve as a basis and inspiration.

Aimed at children from 4 to 10 years old, accompanied by an adult.

Youth workshops.

Saturdays 15, 22 and 29 April, 6, 13, 20 and 27 May and 3, 10 and 17 June; from 12:00 to 13:30.
