Blockbuster Picasso Exhibition Set to Visit Hong Kong in the Coming Year
A major exhibition featuring works by Pablo Picasso will be showcased at the M+ Museum in Hong Kong next year. Titled “Picasso for Asia: A Conversation”, the exhibition will showcase over 60 works by Picasso alongside pieces by Modern and contemporary Asian artists from the M+ collection. The exhibition aims to explore Picasso’s legacy through a unique perspective, highlighting the connections between origin and reception, invention and adaptation, and the dialogue between the West and non-West.
Works by Picasso such as “The Acrobat” and “Figures by the Sea” will be displayed alongside pieces from the M+ collection including “Strange Bird” by Isamu Noguchi and a watercolor by Gu Dexin. The exhibition aims to present a new interpretation of Picasso’s work, addressing complex issues such as his relationships with women and his connections with Asian art.
