Pablo Picasso, without doubt, is one of the world´s most important artists and his contributions shaped a turning point in the world of art. Because of that in Barcelona there is a Picasso Museum, which is a must for those people who not only love this artist in particular but art as a concept.
The Picasso Museum opened its doors in 1963 and currently has close to four thousand works in its permanent collection but, also, offers different types of temporary exhibitions that are presented throughout the year. Many times these exhibitions aren´t related to Picasso, but they are of other artists relevant to both history and present.
So why is this museum important? Because Picasso, despite being born in Málaga, had a very important connection with Barcelona because he spent part of his adolescence and his entire youth in the city. After, he travelled between Barcelona and Paris, another of his loves.
For this reason the galleries of the Picasso Museum are a place that all of those who follow art closely, have to visit. Here they will find a great collection of the artist from Málaga and of other greats in art history.
There´s nothing better than getting involved straight away with the city´s culture than starting in this place. You can rent apartments in Barcelona and soak Picasso in.
