Pablo Picasso: Process & Poetry
Prolific in a wide variety of media, Pablo Picasso embarked on his exploration of the linocut technique in the final decades of his life. The linocuts are distinguished by spirited lines and lyrical subject matter, style choices often attributed to his happy marriage to Jacqueline Roque. This same approach is evident in the ceramic work he made during this period. Process and Poetry takes the theme of the Bacchanalia, originally an ancient Roman festival of Bacchus, as its focal point. The works depict a joyous revelry of musicians and dancers.
Remai Modern is home to the world's most comprehensive collection of Picasso linocuts. Alongside editioned images, this collection contains an exciting range of working proofs, which the artist developed with his printer Hidalgo Arnera. These experimental proofs offer glimpses into the creative process of one of the 20th century's most celebrated artists.
