Picasso en el Pombo

An exhibition that presents 20 original Pochoirs by Picasso, sharing space with José Morea, Joaquín Balsa, Maribel Ruiz Figueras, José Galant and that will run from 1st July to the 30th of August 2016.

Café Pombo was one of the the grand Literary cafés of Europe in the early 20th century. Made famous by Ramon Gomez de la Serna, it was originally an old bottling factory that turned into a modest and somewhat anachronistic café at number 4 Calle Carretas (Madrid).

Ramon Gomez de la Serna was a Spanish writer, dramatist and avant-garde agitator. He strongly influenced surrealist film maker Luis Buñuel. Ramón Gómez de la Serna was especially known for creating “Greguerías” – a short form of poetry that in comedy, roughly corresponds to the `one-liner´.
