Galerie Michael Picasso

Galerie Michael is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibition, showcasing over 50 rare proofs illustrating the unique working relationship Picasso maintained with his printers and their ateliers. Their technical expertise made Picasso's extensive and revolutionary experimentation with the media possible. Many of the works are special proofs which are in-depth collaborations in which Picasso works directly on the plate with the printer. Proofs are often of the most spontaneous nature and contain the highest levels of energy and insight into Picasso's intent rather than the intent of the printer, highly interesting from the standpoint of an intimate view of Picasso. Featuring works created in collaboration with the great printers including Hidalgo Arnéra, Fernand Mourlot and Aldo Crommelynck, the show examines the working process behind it. Ateliers presented include Arnéra, Mourlot, Crommelynck, Frelaut, Lacourière, Desjobert, and Fort.

Exhibit hours are Monday - Saturday, 10am - 6 pm, and Sunday, 11am - 5pm.  For more information, please call (310) 273-3377 or visit www.galeriemichael.com.
