FARAH ATASSI

MUSÉE NATIONAL PICASSO - PARIS

As part of ils new programmation dedicated to the Contemporary reception of Picasso's work, the museum invites in September 2022 the artist Farah Atassi, who presents around fifteen pieces of her most recent work, including seven specially created for the Musée national Picasso-Paris.

The dialogue that Farah Atassi has been conducting with Pablo Picasso's work for several years has gradually become part of contemporary rereadings of the Spanish artist's artistic production. 

This franco-belgian artist draws its inspiration from both ornament and modernism, developing a pictorial language based on the stylization of her drawings, muted colors and a cubist conception of space. Her paintings are almost conceptually figurative and seem to echo the cubism that Picasso developed at the end of the 1910s: the theatrical and poetic cubism of his curtain for the "Parade" ballet in 1917, as well as his 1915 "Harlequin," his refined still life collages and his first "Bathers."
