Panasonic Shiodome Museum of Art "Picasso in the Collection of the Israel Museum: The Origin of Inspiration"

The greatest painter of the 20th century and undisputed Pablo Picasso (1881-1973). Picasso absorbed the art of the past and was inspired by his contemporaries, while constantly creating new and unique works. His creativity and innovation still fascinate us today.
One of the world's leading cultural institutions, the Israel Museum (Jerusalem) has a rich Picasso collection of more than 800 graphic works. This exhibition introduces carefully selected prints from Picasso's collection of the museum. Interweaving oil, watercolor, drawings, and photographs, the exhibition chronicles works from around 1900 when he left for Paris until 1970, three years before his death, and traces the transition of the style of painting from the blue and rosy eras to Cubism, neoclassicism, and even surrealism, as well as the trajectory of technical experiments in printmaking and the transformation of subjects and motifs that he painted repeatedly throughout his life. It's a great opportunity to experience Picasso's phenomenal creative and creative process, which changes styles at will, from classical expression to abstract form.
