Barcelona as a Spanish Inn for the Avant-Gardes
The exhibition 'Picabia, Méditerranée' at the Musée d'art moderne de Céret, labeled of national interest, revives the memory of Barcelona as a small 'capital of the arts' at the turn of the 20th century and into the 1920s. The city was a hub for avant-garde artists, including those in exile around Picabia during the Great War. The exhibition coincides with the celebration of the Année Gaudí.
