White Picasso in the blue memory. Drawing the future

White Picasso in the blue memory. Drawing the future

Picasso began his academic training and assumed his status as an artist in A Coruña, where he lived between 1891 and 1895. He himself considered that his childhood and early adolescence had been crucial to becoming what he was. These years were exhaustively studied in the exhibition “The first Picasso. A Coruña 2015 ”, in which all of his production from A Coruña was made known, from a diachronic perspective.

Picasso, white in the blue memory analyzes the initiatory character of his aesthetic foundations in the Coruña period and how they transcended into the future. He will delve into the themes and their iconographic variables, the concepts or the dimension of his ideas and his early experiences with visual language.

In this exhibition, the debts that the prolific creator owes to that period that he would never forget are revealed, perhaps the only formative stage in which he felt happy, strengthened by a feeling of freedom and self-confidence. Ronald Penrose affirms that in A Coruña he had already "succeeded in relation to his father and at the age of fourteen he was sure of his faculties and his criteria". In the years that he lived here, he discovered the city experimenting through drawing: he captured the streets, the monuments, the beaches, the mountains and the characters that represented the origin of the future artist who would end up defining the most convulsive aesthetic century, the of Picasso.

The title of the exhibition is taken from one of his poems, whose verses allude to the colors blue and white, which evoke a strong identity in A Coruña since the mid-19th century and which Picasso himself came to identify with the city in which he lived and he trained as an artist. These colors also give his name to his first newspaper Azul y Blanco (1893).

The exhibition is structured in ten chapters that obey to references of a thematic, conceptual or language order. Its genesis can be traced back to this period of training from A Coruña, between 1891 and 1895, and it will remain as a peculiar identity seed in the sinuous project that would explain all of Picasso.
