A HOUSE FOR PABLO PICASSO
Registration Deadline: Apr 1, 2023; Submission Deadline: Apr 8, 2023 A HOUSE FOR PABLO PICASSO On April 8th, 2023, there will be 50 years since he died. Picasso & Prehistory… The “Effect” Picasso… titles… titles of the exhibitions planned for 2023. The truth is, it is hard to ignore Picasso and a visit to the Picasso Museum in Paris would make one realize the immense force and prolificity of this communist, owner of at least one castle. So how would A HOUSE FOR PABLO PICASSO look like ? First, perhaps, we should ask: HOW WOULD A PICASSO ARCHITECT be ? Let’s imagine a PICASSO ARCHITECT. Let’s imagine that architect would be me / us. And let’s begin to imagine architectures, among them, A HOUSE. A HOUSE FOR PABLO PICASSO. Of course there were, and maybe still are, protean architects. But specifically a PICASSO ARCHITECT there isn’t. Yet. So we invite A PICASSO HOUSE, a VIVID ONE! A HOUSE DEDICATED TO PEACE ? Maybe, if we consider the deadly war now and Picasso’s white pigeon, symbol of peace. A HOUSE FOR A MINOTAUR ? Most surely, since Picasso was himself a Minotaur. The Picasso universe is vast… the sources of inspiration, vast. Our imagination, imagining a Picasso House, should be vast too. Can we do it ? It won’t be easy. How to be an architect OF THIS VASTNESS ? HOW TO HANDLE THE WHOLE FIELD OF HUMAN EXISTENCE, thus ? And how to be children-like ? We remember that Picasso said that he learned to paint like Raphael in four years and to paint like a child in a lifetime. LET’S BE CHILDREN. LET’S DESCEND WITHIN OURSELVES to that level undisturbed by everything we learned. Can we do it ? DESIGN A HOUSE FOR PABLO PICASSO! A HOUSE FOR THE QUINTESSENTIAL ARTIST OF THE 20TH CENTURY. Now that there are 50 years since his death. Even the gods, it seems, die… Please send us your work on two sheets forma A1, oriented vertically. Please send it digitally to info@icarch.org.
