This Saturday, 14 November at 12 noon, the Museo Picasso Málaga invites the public to take part in a storytelling session featuring tales, legends and characters from the literary tradition of Northern Europe. Through oral storytelling and active listening to a selection of titles from Nórdica Libros, participants will be able to discover the richness of Northern European literature and folklore, as well as the unique visual world that characterises this publisher’s carefully crafted illustrated editions.
The event offers a journey through imaginary worlds, surprising characters and stories brimming with sensitivity, humour and fantasy, in which words and illustrations come together to spark curiosity and fuel the imagination of young and old alike. An invitation to listen, look, discover and enjoy books through a shared experience.
This will be the first cultural activity aimed at families associated with ‘Munch-Picasso’, an exhibition exploring the links and affinities between two of modernity’s most influential artists, Edvard Munch and Pablo Picasso. The storytelling session offers a different approach to the Nordic cultural context, building bridges between literature, illustration and the visual arts.
The activity will last approximately one hour and will take place on the museum premises. Participation is free with the purchase of a museum ticket (children up to the age of 17 enter free of charge). No prior registration is required. You can find out about other free admissions and discounts on the Museo Picasso Málaga website.
The Munch-Picasso exhibition is organised in special collaboration with the Munchmuseet and the Almine and Bernard Ruiz-Picasso Foundation (FABA), and is sponsored by the Unicaja Foundation.
