NYC:
Gagosian Gallery – Madison Avenue - Picasso and Françoise Gilot: Paris–Vallauris,
1943–1953 Exhibition. At the Gagosian Gallery, Madison Avenue, until June 30
the Picasso and Françoise Gilot: Paris–Vallauris 1943–1953 exhibition. It is the
fourth major exhibition in an ongoing series on the life and work of Pablo
Picasso and it is conceived as a visual and conceptual dialogue between the art
of Picasso and the art of Françoise Gilot, his young muse and lover during the
period 1943–53. The exhibition is a result of an active collaboration
between Gilot and Picasso’s biographer John Richardson, assisted by Gagosian
director Valentina Castellani.
Gagosian Gallery – Picasso and Françoise Gilot: Paris–Vallauris,
1943–1953 Exhibition. “Picasso and Françoise Gilot” celebrates the full
breadth and energy of Picasso’s innovations during these post-war years, as
well as presenting Gilot’s paintings alongside his marvelously innovative
depictions of her and their family life. It is the first time that their work
has been exhibited together—that the painterly dialogue between the fascinated
mature male artist and the self-possessed young female artist can be retraced
and explored.
