New Picasso exhibition to be showcased in Ireland

A brand-new exhibition showcasing the breadth of Picasso’s work will be opening at the National Gallery of Ireland.

‘Picasso: From the Studio’ will be the first Irish exhibition of this scale to showcase the Spanish master’s art since his death in 1973.

The first ever display of Picasso’s work in Ireland was organised by Trinity College students in a library storage room back in 1969.

This time around, the exhibition places Picasso in the context of his studios, highlighting the phases of his art and life.

It will feature paintings, sculptures, ceramics, works on paper, as well as photographic and audio-visual works.
