Meisterwerke der Albertina

Exactly half a century after his passing, the ALBERTINA Museum is commemorating the life and works of Pablo Picasso, that greatest and most influential artist of the 20th century - a pioneer of its first half with cubism, a central protagonist of symbolism during his Blue Period, a forerunner of the 1920s’ neoclassicist tendencies, and in his late works an ideal to be emulated by the neoexpressionist movements of the 1980s.
Accompanying this jubilee exhibition a 160 pages strong exhibition catalogue is published, which gives an overview of the ALBERTINA Museum’s Picasso holdings, and contains essays by Julia Eßl, Matthias Frehner, and Gisela Kirpiscenko.
