Culturezilla Barcelona - Exhibition Tours

Please book your ticket on **LUMA**​

​Barcelona is hosting its first ever exhibition entirely dedicated to the Nabis.
​
Imagine a group of young art students in 1880s Paris - part a fraternity, part an occult group with their own rituals and cause - who call themselves the Nabis. Gathered weekly in a studio they call "the Temple," armed with a small painting no bigger than a cigar box, they reject the academic traditions of their day and chase something rawer: flat colours, bold patterns, the flicker of night streets, the poster on the corner of a Montmartre boulevard.

They are painters, yes, but also printmakers, tapestry designers, theatre set designers, and poster artists, obsessed with pulling art out of the museum and into everyday life. Gauguin lights the spark, Japanese influence reshapes their eye and the arrival of Photography redefines the limits.

What you are about to see in the La Pedrera exhibition is something rarely attempted: the Nabis are shown not artist by artist, but theme by theme, so you can feel both what unites them and what makes each one singular. It is a movement that lasted barely twenty years, but one that quietly unlocked the door to almost everything that came after.

Enjoy the only English tour of this exhibition, given by a seasoned art historian.

​💫Join this private tour (max 12 p.) to deep-dive into the works of the Nabis and have an understanding of the time period.

💫Leave the tour with inspiration and a deeper understanding of history of art, how the effects of Nabis still linger.

*The price includes the ticket and the tour.

In 1905, when Henri Matisse's boldly colored canvases exploded onto the walls of Paris's Salon d'Automne, the art world would never be the same. Fauvism had arrived 💥

Let's discover the world of Matisse by close-looking at selected seminal works in the current exhibition at Caixa Forum.
This is a kind of looking that stays with you long after you leave the gallery.
