The Collection from the Musée National Picasso Paris

Held on05 feb 2008to30 abr 2008
Sabatini Building, Floor 1 and Nouvel Building, Floors 1 and 2

This exhibition is therefore an exceptional and unique one, being made up of a selection of the Parisian museum's collection and which includes almost all of his masterpieces, spanning Picasso’s entire career, integrated and in close dialogue with the archives from the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, with Guernica (1937) as protagonist, one of the biggest milestones of modern and Picasso’s art.

The exhibition is designed into four chronological areas in a dialectical construction which proposes an unedited route of his creation process, from the academicism of his first paintings in 1895, when he was fourteen, until the "mosqueteros" which embody the exalted painter, through to the painting from the summer of 1972, a few months before his death.

This exceptional exhibition complements the numerous exhibitions on Picasso that have taken place since the Museo’s inception, in its attempt to present different perspectives of the most important artist of the twentieth century.
