Description:
The starting point of this exhibition is the 1920s and early 1930s, when changes in general patterns of behaviour and artistic processes meant that the act of creating became more and more the incarnation of the artist’s desires. The most noticeable difference was the gradual incorporation of the theme of the muse-woman, which took over from the conceptual still life, the machine, the automaton and the object, forcing a change of style that liberated modernity.
