New exhibition in Torre del Mar explores the art of calligraphy

Calligraphy artist Gema Martínez has opened a new solo exhibition titled 'Evocâre' at the tourist information office in Torre del Mar on Spain's Costa del Sol. The exhibition presents a series of works that use distorted, superimposed, and invented calligraphic signs to explore the mechanisms of memory, transforming personal recollections into visual, often illegible, writing.

Picasso Museum Malaga undergoes transformation to revisit artist's relationship with his father

The Picasso Museum Malaga (MPM) has opened a major exhibition titled "Memory and Desire," featuring 112 works from museums across Europe and the United States. The show centers on Picasso's 1925 painting "Studio with Plaster Head," on loan from MoMA in New York, and aims to rehabilitate the reputation of José Ruiz Blasco, Picasso's father and first art teacher. Curated by Eugenio Carmona, the exhibition challenges the long-held critical view that the father-son relationship was stormy, instead tracing the profound artistic influence José had on Picasso, from early academic works to surrealist masterpieces.
