In Zurich, it always has been and even more so during the movement\u0026rsquo;s hundredth anniversary this year. One of its most lauded protagonists is now the focus of the brilliant exhibition at the Kunsthaus Zurich: Francis Picabia (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'TheSans Plain'; BACKGROUND: white; COLOR: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e1879\u0026ndash;1953)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'TheSans Plain'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: SabonLTStd-Roman; mso-fareast-language: DE\"\u003e. An appropriation artist before the term even existed, the dashing racecar driver, lounge lizard, and womanizer who ridiculed authorities and \u0026ldquo;adopted\u0026rdquo; art history with chutzpah. His art was like him: between kitsch and ambition, eccentric, ironic, excessive. The retrospective promises to be a red-letter event. The catalogue\u0026nbsp;provides essays and texts by well-known authors who situate Picabia\u0026rsquo;s position within the Dada movement and investigate his contribution to art of the modern era. The quality of the illustrated section makes for an elaborate catalogue that is a wonderful read long after having visited the exhibition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'TheSans Plain'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: SabonLTStd-Roman; mso-fareast-language: DE\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'TheSansOsF Plain','sans-serif'; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%\"\u003eExhibitions: Kunsthaus Zurich 3.6.\u0026ndash;25.9.2016 | MoMA, New York 20.11.2016\u0026ndash;19.3.2017\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45526201860360,"sku":"9783775741750","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775741750_ae08eb24-78fe-403b-84ef-b3f97fa25ae2.jpg?v=1744064482","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17918-francis-picabia","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
