  Ubu the Painter Alfred Jarry and the Arts Museu Picasso

  The Museu Picasso in Barcelona presents Ubú the Painter. Alfred Jarry and the Arts, an exhibition that examines the influence and impact of Alfred Jarry's work on art and literature from the end of the 19th century through to the present day. A careful selection of works by contemporary artists as well as later figures, including David Hockney, Robert Wilson and William Kentridge, allows the exhibition to highlight the connections between this French playwright and creators from his inner circle, such as Henri Rousseau, Paul Gauguin, Pablo Picasso, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec and Joan Miró.

  Jarry, creator of the iconic Ubu Roi in 1896, profoundly influenced the avant-garde of the 20th century. His satirical and provocative vision inspired movements such as Surrealism and Dadaism, which saw in him a pivotal figure when it came to breaking with established norms. The exhibition traces this impact through paintings, engravings and documents that reveal how his legacy lives on in contemporary art.

  An exhibition that merges theater, literature and visual arts, celebrating Jarry as a forerunner of modern thought and an influential cultural agitator.
