Something Picasso

In 1948, Eugenio Arias and Pablo Picasso were found during the exile in the French Mediterranean coast, starting from then close friendship between the two. Eugenio
worked as a barber shop owner, who strengthened the relationship with the painter, not only deepening their friendship with which serious in 1961 Picasso's wife, Jacqueline Roque, but with the circle of the same, people like Jean Cocteau. Many of them wanted to be photographed with the famous painter during his stay in France, wanting to catch their success, so Eugenio Arias, was especially Picasso wanted it asked for nothing.

As Eugene gave his work and his memories of Picasso, this regaled him samples of their work with drawings and inscriptions in books and barber, sharing not only the traditional subjects themselves a distant Spain, if not its concern for the present of a country that could not return, which supported from movement against Franco.

few months ago and, in June this year, was presented in the House of Culture of Buenos Aires, the Museo Picasso - Eugenio Arias Collection, who was the barber and friend of the famous painter.



works obviously not as famous as the Guernica, but do show a beautiful collection drawings, diagrams and sketches of the themes in common with Arias: bullfighting, referring to political prisoners and tributes to the profession as a barber. Many of these pictures remind us the rock carvings by the freshness of the movement of the strokes.
are appreciated too, issues that evoke a classical living in the Greek and Cretan gods, fauns and goats, that is, visions outside the Picasso production of the second half of the forties. In this regard, María Dolores Jiménez-Blanco writes:


"Picasso, moved away from the current art, took refuge in the past, with perhaps half. Needed, at any rate, review, parody and show their respect, and revenciarlo demystify the time. "



profound shift away from abstraction, some quick drawings of Picasso, scrawled in dedications, may itself be self-portraits, the figure of his current wife Jacqueline appeared at times, [note the portrait of woman with purple bandanas on the head] and Arias' mother, Nicole , whose austere portrait served in 1960 for a campaign for amnesty for English political prisoners, as Eugenio Arias and Pablo Picasso. Arias
treasured for many years the work of his friend, hoping someday to bring democratic Spain.

"Today, from its headquarters in Buitrago de Lozoya, in the mountains of Madrid, her collection is an invitation to rediscover Picasso. Because yours is a different Picasso: intimate, familiar, friend of the barber, bullfighting aficionado, idealistic exile. But also a Picasso myth of twentieth century art, a modern classic that has been able to breathe new life into genres and ancestral forms, such as ceramic or engraving, to venture to the absolute lack of bias in the tradition, and explore as freely as possible the most varied fields of artistic creation.
