Francis Bacon: From Picasso to Velázquez september 30, 2016–january 8, 2017 second floor • curator: martin harrison Francis Bacon: From Picasso to Velázquez shows a selection of more than 50 of Francis Bacon’s most important and attractive paintings, including works that have barely been exhibited in public before, alongside almost 30 works by different classical and modern masters who influenced his career. The exhibition aims to examine the imprint that French and Spanish cultures left on the output of this British artist born in Ireland, a fervent francophone and connoisseur of the art of the great Spanish masters like Velázquez. Bacon embarked on his career as a painter after visiting the exhibition entitled Cent dessins par Picasso in the Paul Rosenberg Gallery in Paris in 1927. Fascinated by French literature, Bacon was an avid reader of Racine, Balzac, Baudelaire, and Proust and a passionate fan of the art by painters living in France like Soutine, Giacometti and Picasso, along with other earlier artists such as Ingres, Géricault, and Daumier. Beyond his early encounters with Picasso’s oeuvre in Paris in the 1920’s and 1930’s, his relationship with Spanish culture primarily manifested itself in his obsession for Velázquez’s 1650 work Portrait of Pope Innocent X, which Bacon became familiar with through reproductions. Other great masters like Goya, El Greco and Zurbarán also left their mark on Francis Bacon’s oeuvre. Exhibition organized by the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in collaboration with Grimaldi Forum Monaco

Albert Oehlen: Behind the Image october 21, gallery 105

2016– february 5, 2017 • curator: petra joos

Born in Krefeld in 1954, Albert Oehlen is one of the most influential painters in recent decades and one of the most controversial artists in post-war Germany. His contemporary pictorial style is an amalgam of methods borrowed from advertising, Expressionist brushwork, Surrealist gesture and computer-generated images. Determined to add complexity to a medium that is periodically declared obsolete, Oehlen uses his work to fuel the debate. In recent years, his paintings have attained what the artist identifies as his main subject matter: artistic freedom, which is clear in the way he approaches each canvas with fearless abandon, using new techniques with old vocabularies to create the uncanny, paradoxical sense of familiar novelty. Oehlen is a conceptual artist who uses paint as a medium, and in this sense he has claimed: “Think whatever you like. It’s boring to talk about meaning. I’m not looking for the public’s connection or understanding. They are all free to feel.”

Sam Taylor-Johnson: Sigh september 9–december 11, 2016 gallery 103 • curator: lucía agirre The Film & Video Gallery is a space permanently devoted to video art and moving images. During the forthcoming months, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao will be presenting the Sam Taylor-Johnson work Sigh (2008) in this space. Paul Klee, Full Moon in the Garden (Vollmond im Garten), 1934. Oil on primed canvas, 50.3 x 60.1 cm. Hermann und Margrit Rupf-Stiftung, Kunstmuseum Bern. © Paul Klee’s Estate/vegap, 2016

The Collection of Hermann and Margrit Rupf november 11, 2016– april 23, 2017 galleries 305, 306, 307 curators : susanne friedli and petra joos Hermann Rupf was one of the most fascinating Swiss personalities in the past century. He arrived in Paris in the early 20th century after having worked in banking with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, and with no knowledge of the art market. However, thanks to his open vision and fervent love of culture, he developed his own unique taste which turned him into one of the earliest collectors to purchase works by Braque, Derain, and Picasso, among other artists. Upon his return to Berne, Rupf continued to cultivate his interest in the art of his day. His marriage to Margrit Wirz in 1910 only fueled his passion for collecting; during World War I Kahnweiler took refuge in their house and they met numerous artists, including Kandinsky and Klee. In 1954, Hermann and Margrit Rupf donated their wonderful collection of approximately 250 works and countless publications to the foundation which bears their name, which is housed in the Kunstmuseum of Berne. Following the Rupfs’ vision, ever since then the Foundation has primarily earmarked their investment towards acquiring works by contemporary artists.

Since the 1990’s, the photographs and video installations of Sam Taylor-Johnson (Croydon, United Kingdom, 1967) have explored the rawest human emotions, isolating and presenting them in fragmented ways by either deconstructing the narrative or, as in her work Sigh, altering our perception of image and sound. This audiovisual installation presents the musicians of the BBC Concert Orchestra recording a soundtrack created specifically for this work by the renowned composer Anne Dudley. Although the sound is clearly audible, the musicians are not playing their instruments but instead merely mimicking the gestures and movements of musical performance.

Open to all Museum Members who want to participate. This initiative is targeted at people who want to learn more about basic, essential conceptual issues in contemporary art. time: 6–8 pm

schedule: on the Museum website
