Plossu / Picasso. Barcelona / Gósol / Horta de Sant Joan / Cadaqués

With subtle plays of light, Plossu has created a series of photographs that capture the beauty of the landscapes the young Picasso immersed himself in and spurred his prodigious creativity. The Fresson process, characterised by its rich tonal range and the textures of its finish, adds a captivating depth to these evocative images.

In their exploration of the very same landscapes and villages that once so inspired the Malagan painter, Plossu’s photographs transcend the barrier of time and capture the soul of these special places. The Museu Picasso invites us to immerse ourselves in a fascinating confrontation of the images captured by Plossu and the works in which Picasso depicted the same views. In some cases, historical documents and period photographs are included alongside the paintings and sketches, adding a further rich layer of content.
