Monument Homenatge a Picasso, Public sculpture in Ciutat Vella, Barcelona, Spain.
The Monument Homenatge a Picasso features a glass enclosure containing wooden furniture and iron girders, surrounded by water and measuring 4 meters in height.
Antoni Tapies created this monument in 1983 to commemorate the centenary of Pablo Picasso's birth, following a commission from the Barcelona City Council.
The monument incorporates sheets with written statements attributed to Picasso, reflecting the artist's connection to Barcelona where he lived, studied, and worked.
Located near Parc de la Ciutadella, the monument stands in a street that connects to several apartments where Picasso's family resided and his early art studios.
The assemblage combines modernist furniture pierced with iron bars and tied with ropes, creating a scene that represents the intersection of domestic life and artistic upheaval.
