Exhibition: EUROPA, Museo Picasso Málaga


  • Museo Picasso Málaga 8 Calle San Agustín Málaga, AN, 29015 Spain (map)

In 1966, at the age of 28, Meyerowitz embarked on road trip through Europe. He drove 20,000 miles through 10 countries and took 25,000 photographs. During this period, Meyerowitz settled in Málaga for six months. This unique experience, which resulted in an extraordinary photographic record of Spain during the height of the Francoist dictatorship, was hugely influential for Meyerowitz and had a long-lasting impact on his signature style of photography.

Featuring vintage and large-format prints in color and black and white, the exhibition will present an in-depth account of Meyerowitz’s travels through England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, France, Spain, Germany, Turkey, Greece and Italy, centering on the significance of his stay in Málaga. The exhibition features everyday street scenes, urban and natural landscapes, and photographs taken from inside his moving car. The exhibition also features the original prints from his first solo exhibition at MoMA in 1968.
