Description
Visit the Mapfre Foundation in Madrid, and discover a space for avant-garde culture as well as artistic and documentary photography. See works of painting, photography, and sketches with a focus on the period spanning from the late-19th century to the mid-20th century. Until May 5, 2024 the visitors can enjoy two excellent temporary exhibitions of greats artists: CHAGALL. A CRY OF FREEDOM Marc Chagall (1887-1985), whose life spanned two world wars and an exile, left a body of work deeply rooted in the history of the 20th century. Embodiment of rootlessness and migration, like so many figures in his work, the artist moved around the world at the mercy of the upheavals of his century, from his childhood in White Russia to France, from Germany to Palestine and from the United States to Mexico, before settling by the Mediterranean. This exhibition, the result of a collaboration between La Piscine - Musée d'Art et d'Industrie André Diligent, (Roubaix), Fundación MAPFRE and the Musée national Marc Chagall in Nice, presents the artist's work in the light of the historical events he witnessed, thus becoming the first complete reading of his production from the perspective of his stances and his humanist socio-political commitment. CHRISTER STRÖMHOLM Christer Strömholm (1918-2002) captured his surroundings in black-and-white images that display his integrity, understated humour and a highly personal aesthetic. With his unmistakable sensitivity to human suffering, based on his personal experience, he took photography in a new direction. Through a collection of one hundred and fifty photographs, almost all of them vintage prints and old exhibition prints, with additional archive material, this exhibition presents a comprehensive retrospective of the Swedish photographer. The exhibition covers all aspects of his extraordinary output, from his participation in the German 'Fotoform' group in the early 1950s, to the found-object assemblages of his final period, to his many world travels, his street photography and his portraits of artists.
