🎨 To commemorate Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), numerous museums in France, Spain, the United States and Italy opened exhibitions, focusing on different aspect of his life. Quite a rich life. Living mainly in Spain and France, Picasso revolutionized the arts in many ways. The most notorious revolution is undeniably cubism, where lines, perspectives, shapes, POV,… everything has been reinvented. Let's explore his work and legacy in this week's conversations (and April 27th, 2023, Focus Group on LES DEMOISELLES D'AVIGNON): https://www.frenchconversationgroup.com
