THE COLLECTION OF THE MUSÉE NATIONAL PICASSO PARIS
Sabatini Building: Hall A1 (1st floor) and halls around Guernica (2nd floor)
Date: 06-02-2008 al 05-05-2008
Time: Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 21:00 h
Sunday from 10:00 to 14:30 h
Closed on Tuesday
The retrospective, one of the most exhaustive and ambitious shows on Picasso to date, brings together over 400 works from this singular collection. The pieces, which came from the artist’s personal collection, are Picasso’s own “picassos” – works he was determined never to relinquish. Paintings, sculptures, ceramics, drawings, etchings, notebooks and a selection of 20 documentary photographs from the painter’s own archives will be exhibited outside of the Parisian museum while extensive reform and expansion work requiring the partial closure of the Hôtel Salé is being completed.
Given the significant number of pieces involved, the Museo Reina Sofía has set aside four spaces: three of its temporary exhibition halls and the entire Permanent Collection wing, where Guernica is located, for this exhibit. In these spaces, the works from the Musée National Picasso will engage in a dialogue with the Museo Reina Sofía’s own pieces.
