Picasso and Africa
April, 13 2006- May, 21 2006
Iziko, Cape Town

In no other European artist’s career did African art play such a pivotal and historically significant role as in Picasso’s. From the moment that he had his first encounter with African art in the ethnographic galleries of the Trocadéro in June 1907, he had a sense of the objects as charged with emotion, with a magical force capable of deeply affecting us. At the same time he understood the conceptual principles characteristic of classical African masks and figures, and looked carefully at the formal and expressive lessons he could learn. Politically aware, Picasso challenged both Western artistic traditions and colonial exploitation with his admiration for, and appropriation of, African art.

Matisse-Figure Color Space
March, 19 2006-July, 9 2006
Fondation Beyeler, Bâle, Switzerland

Henri Matisse is the artist of the hour. The great pioneer of modernism, whose compositions in color and form pushed the potentials of figuration and, indirectly, abstraction to their limits and beyond, has remained an incredibly influential painter to this day. His work, rife with breaks yet evincing continual development, is the subject of a Fondation Beyeler exhibition, the first comprehensive review of its kind to be held in Switzerland for over twenty years.

Magritte and photography
March, 15 2006-June, 11 2006
Maison Européenne de la photographie, Paris

A painter, filmmaker, photographer and writer, René Magritte was an artist of many talents. For him photography went hand in hand with the drawings and thumbnail sketches he did on the corners of tablecloths, on beermats or even in the palm of his hand. The speed of the snapshot made a welcome change from the daily routine of "boring" and "time-consuming" painting.

Summer of love
May, 12 2006-September, 17 2006
Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna, Austria

"Summer of Love" is the Kunsthalle’s motto for the summer 2006, promising a plunge into the “flower power” of the 1960’s and early 70’s. Psychedelia bears witness to a social, political, ethnic and sexual liberation that had its beginning in the 1967 “summer of love” in San Francisco. The dialogue carried on among psychedelic art, political revolution and counter-culture found its reflection in a unique aesthetics that gave voice to social, political, ethnic and sexual liberation.
