Showcasing nearly 300 works spanning the artist\u2019s career, the exhibition highlights Picasso\u2019s relentless exploration of paper. His appreciation of and experimentation with the material is revealed in the works ranging from collages of cut-and-pasted papers to sculptures from pieces of torn and burnt paper, manipulated photographs, drawings in virtually all available media, and prints in an array of techniques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights include Femmes \u00e0 leur toilette<\/em> (1937\u201338), a monumental collage measuring nearly 10 by 15 feet, on view for the first time in the United States. This striking work, created with cut-out wallpapers and gouache on paper pasted onto canvas, is part of the collection at the Mus\u00e9e national Picasso-Paris, having been donated by the artist\u2019s estate in 1979. Picasso\u2019s Cubist and Surrealist periods are richly represented through works like his iconic constructed paper guitars and papiers coll\u00e9s<\/em>. His fascination with paper as an art form is further exemplified through personal sketchbooks and studies that laid the groundwork for celebrated masterpieces like Les Demoiselles d\u2019Avignon<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition arranges works on paper chronologically and pairs them with select paintings and sculptures to illustrate how paper underpinned Picasso’s creative vision. Visitors will find connections between his early Blue Period work, such as La Vie<\/em> (1903), and its preparatory sketches, while his bronze Head of a Woman (Fernande)<\/em> (1909) stands amidst a suite of drawings, underlining paper\u2019s critical role in his Cubist works. By presenting these media side by side, the exhibition offers insight into Picasso\u2019s innovative process and how he used paper to experiment, refine, and expand his artistic practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accompanying Picasso and Paper<\/em> is a richly illustrated catalogue with contributions from Picasso scholars, including Emilia Philippot of the Mus\u00e9e national Picasso-Paris and Claustre Rafart Planas. Essays by experts such as Violette Andres, photography curator at the Mus\u00e9e national Picasso-Paris and Johan Popelard, Head of the Conservation and Collections Department at the Mus\u00e9e national Picasso-Paris while conservator Emmanuelle Hincelin provide insights into the material science of Picasso\u2019s preferred papers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
