Farah Atassi. Genius Loci


Event details

23/05 – 14/12/2025
Picasso Museum Málaga

Farah Atassi, a promising artist in contemporary art, has developed a body of work deeply influenced by geometric shapes and the manipulation of space. Atassi, whose work engages in a dialogue with great masters of modern art like Pablo Picasso, presents us with a proposal that is not merely a reinterpretation of the Cubist tradition, but an exploration of the expressive possibilities of space in contemporary painting.

Born in 1981 in Brussels, Atassi studied at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and has been acclaimed for her unique style, which blends the tradition of figurative painting with a clear Cubist influence and a very personal approach to the representation of space. In the exhibition Genius Loci, Atassi explores a series of works created between 2015 and 2025, where the artist continues to challenge the conventions of pictorial space. Her painting, often appearing as if constructed by an architect, does not seek a faithful reproduction of reality. The precise lines and objects depicted in her paintings seem to belong to a parallel world, where time has stopped, evoking a sense of mystery. The title of the exhibition, Genius Loci, suggests a connection with the concept of "spirit of the place," where the spaces created by the artist come to life, imbued with a subtle energy that transcends geometric forms. The exhibition is curated by art historian Marjolaine Lévy.
