Orientalism is a literary and artistic movement born in Western Europe in the 18th century. Through its scale and popularity, throughout the 19th century, it marked the interest and curiosity of artists and writers for the countries of the West (the Maghreb) or the Levant (the Middle East). Orientalism was born from the fascination of the Ottoman Empire and followed its slow disintegration and the progression of European colonizations. This exotic trend is associated with all the artistic movements of the 19th century, academic, romantic, realistic or even impressionist. It is present in architecture, music, painting, literature, poetry... Picturesque aesthetics, confusing styles, civilizations and eras, orientalism has created numerous clichés and clichés that we still find today in literature or cinema.

The Metamorphoses of Guernica provides a unique immersion into the heart of one of the major masterpieces of the 20th century. This experience traces the history of Pablo Picasso’s monumental painting, from its commission for the 1937 International Exhibition in Paris to its emergence as an iconic symbol of peace. The story unfolds through the alternating first-person narratives of Spanish Republican delegate Juan Larrea and Surrealist artist Dora Maar. Through Maar's extraordinary photographs, audiences witness the creation of a masterpiece that is both profoundly real and beyond realism. This work was co-produced by Lucid Realities, the Musée national Picasso-Paris, and VIVE Arts.
