A miniature gouache painting by Pablo Picasso has gone missing in Spain, according to CajaGranada Fundación, a cultural center and museum in Granada. In a statement shared with Hyperallergic, the institution said that its staff discovered that Picasso’s “Naturaleza muerta con guitarra (Still life with a guitar)” (1919) was missing from a shipment of items meant for an exhibition that opened earlier this month. Picasso’s work has long been targeted by thieves, including in a 2012 heist at a Dutch museum in which “Tête d’Arlequin” (1971) was swiped. In 2019, a French court found that the Spanish artist’s electrician and his wife had stolen 271 Picasso paintings and kept them hidden in their garage for 40 years. In its statement, CajaGranada Fundación said that it filed a report with Spain’s national police and will cooperate in the investigation. Read the full story at our link in bio. . . .
