The Painter

andriesse eyck gallery, Amsterdam
7.9 – 12.10.2019










































Untitled (Picasso, The Painter, 1963), 2019
Gouache and pencil on paper, 41 drawings, 21 x 29.7 cm

The exhibition The Painter was centered around a series
of 41 drawings based on Picasso's eponymous painting
from 1963 and was complemented by a small selection
of other drawings, several stools from the artist's studio
and some mobiles. In the backspace of the gallery visitors
were invited to play a spoken word recording from the
novel The Making of Americans (1925) by Gertrude Stein
who, in her day and discipline, set out to palpably show
that repetition is a fundamental principle of life.
