Date: 17 October 2011 – 5 February 2012
Venue: Museo Picasso (Picasso Museum) - Palacio de Buenavista, Malaga
Foundation: Collection of the Fondation Alberto et Annette Giacometti, Paris

The Museo Picasso Málaga presents Alberto Giacometti. A Retrospective, an exhibition that precisely reflects the different stages in the career of one of the outstanding artists of the last century. Giacometti’s work is crucial to understanding the development of the avant-gardes and the subsequent evolution of contemporary art, yet this unique oeuvre defies classification. With minor exceptions, all of the works are from the Collection of the Fondation Alberto et Annette Giacometti in Paris, created by the artist's widow.

This is the first Alberto Giacometti retrospective to be held in Spain in more than 20 years, and will put on show in the Palacio de Buenavista a total of 169 original artworks of the Swiss artist and 20 photographs documenting his work. Challenging the conventional reductionist view, the exhibition project celebrates the breadth of Giacometti’s achievement.

A painter, sculptor, draftsman, printmaker, creator of decorative objects and writer, Giacometti never ceased to explore new artistic paths. The exhibition as a whole bears witness to his disturbing and wonderful world and the coherence of his aesthetic position.

The exhibition is curated by art historian Véronique Wiesinger, director of the Fondation Alberto et Annette Giacometti in Paris and one of the world’s foremost experts on the artist’s work, in collaboration with José Lebrero Stals, artistic director of the Museo Picasso Málaga.
