Joan Miró. Masterpieces from the Nahmad Collection
From June 30 to September 27
The Picasso Museum offers a unique experience: presenting twelve masterpieces by Joan Miró, from one of the world’s most important private collections, the Nahmad collection. Miró is here at home, like a guest in his friend’s house. Because the friendship that bound the two artists throughout their lives, from their first meeting in Paris in 1920, was also a fermentation of their creative passion. The rooms host only one work, sometimes two. Unlike the traditional exhibition that gathers and associates, it is no longer about accumulation, but about concentration and reception of the object in its singularity for contemplation and interpretation.
Note: From June 4 to 29, 2024 Installation of the summer exhibition and closure of the first floor. Reduced admission with access to the second floor, ground floor, and terrace.
