La Casa Encendida

THERE ARE NO ORIGINAL OR REPRODUCTION PICASSO WORKS IN THE EXHIBITION

The place is nice and the staff are friendly. However, the description of the exhibition meant I thought there would be 50 Picasso works with 50 artists responding to these originals. A great concept but only labels for the picasso works are left. Presumably they were there but have now been removed. This significantly detracts from the purpose of the exhibition. All that is left is 50 works which are largely imitations of Picasso's style. There are English QR codes for all the text but I found the layout with the text on the opposite wall to the unlabelled pictures confusing.

A tour sat dominating one room for over 30 mins so I couldn't see half the works, but in the end I decided it didn't matter as I did not find the works that engaging.

I would go to the place for a different exhibition, just not this one, which is a shame as the concept of the exhibition was great.
