In 2019, as an exceptional cultural highlight, the Fondation Beyeler is mounting a unique exhibition devoted to Pablo Picasso’s masterpieces of his early Blue and Rose periods. This will be the most comprehensive presentation ever seen in Europe of Picasso’s paintings and sculptures from 1901 to 1906, each one of which is a milestone on the road to recognition as the twentieth century’s paramount artist. Picasso’s pictures from this period are counted among the most beautiful examples of modern art and are certainly some of the most valuable art works anywhere in the world.

Almine Rech is pleased to announce the nomination of Ida Tursic & Wilfried Mille for the Prix Marcel Duchamp 2019.

-

The Prix Marcel Duchamp reflects above all the collector’s view – the view of the informed and enthusiastic lay art-lover – of the French scene today. But beyond the very wide-ranging roster of artists shortlisted since 2000, a glimpse of the vast artistic panorama of our times, the prize is also the vehicle of a humanist message reflecting the French spirit of open-mindedness and even-handedness that I value enormously and which seems to me ever more important to defend in the divided world we live in. 

Founded by the aDiaF in 2000, open to French and French-based artists and organised from the first in partnership with the Centre Pompidou, the Prix Marcel Duchamp has made its mark as one of the most effective vehicles for raising awareness of contemporary art in France, gaining a prestige that makes it one of the most important of national prizes on the international scene.

Deliberately intended to recognise the most innovative artists of their generation, the Prix Marcel Duchamp seeks to promote the whole spectrum of contemporary art while setting different forms and practices into dialogue. The prize has to date been awarded to 16 artists from among some 70 shortlisted candidates.

Nathaniel Mary Quinn: This is Life will be on view in MMoCA’s State Street Gallery from December 1, 2018 through March 3, 2019. The exhibition features seventeen of the artist’s mixed-media works on paper, created from 2014 to 2018. During this crucial four year period Quinn developed and refined the collage-like technique now synonymous with his name.

Under the curatorial leadership of Vincent Honoré, Independent Brussels 2018 will reframe the art fair model into a performative festival welcoming live art, installations, curated displays, music, and discussions, resulting in an arena for experimentation, unexpected interactions and collective thinking.
