Descripción de la Exposición
Galerie de l’Institut presents, in its two Parisian spaces on rue de Seine and rue des Beaux-Arts, the exhibition-event on Picasso’s sculpture, bringing together some of the most important milestones of Picasso’s work in three dimensions.
More than 70 sculptures (1905 to 1962), accompanied by 35 drawings and paintings, are brought together for the first time in a Paris gallery. Some of them will be on sale on this occasion. The exhibition, “Picasso. Sculptures 1905-1962,”divided into two main themes — “the figure” (rue des Beaux-Arts) and “the bestiary” (rue de Seine) covers the diversity of the artist’s activity. Among the exceptional works, the public will be able to discover the first cubist sculpture in the artist’s corpus, a Woman’s Head (Fernande), as well as two masterful cut, folded and painted sheet metal heads from 1961; the latter two masterpieces are on exceptional loan. In each of the two exhibition spaces (just a few meters apart), the sculptures are accompanied by a selection of paintings and works on paper, highlighting the dialogue and complementarity between the different media used by Picasso. The works on paper include study and research drawings, which give “the movement of his thought”; stand-alone drawings show the recurrence of a theme; cardboard and paper cutouts form the models for the cut, folded and painted sheets.
