Picasso in The Metropolitan Museum of Art: A Behind-the-scenes Tour with the Director

Learn more about the exhibition Picasso in The Metropolitan Museum of Art on view at the Met April 27, 2010 - August 1, 2010: tinyurl.com/Met...
This landmark exhibition is the first to focus exclusively on works by Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881 - 1973) in the Museum's collection. It features three hundred works, including the Museum's complete holdings of paintings, drawings, sculptures, and ceramics by Picasso-never before seen in their entirety-as well as a selection of the artist's prints. The Museum's collection reflects the full breadth of the artist's multi-sided genius as it asserted itself over the course of his long and influential career.
Notable for its remarkable constellation of early figure paintings, which include the commanding At the Lapin Agile (1905) and the iconic portrait of Gertrude Stein (1906), the Museum's collection also stands apart for its exceptional cache of drawings, which remain relatively little known, despite their importance and number. The key subjects that variously sustained Picasso's interest-the pensive harlequins of his Blue and Rose periods, the faceted figures and tabletop still lifes of his cubist years, the monumental heads and classicizing bathers of the 1920s, the raging bulls and dreaming nudes of the 1930s, and the rakish cavaliers and musketeers of his final years-are amply represented by works ranging in date from a dashing self-portrait of 1900 (Self-Portrait "Yo") to the fanciful Standing Nude and Seated Musketeer painted nearly seventy years later.
The exhibition and the catalogue are made possible by the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation.

When and after the boom falls (WW3) there will be a great deal of teaching to do among other things (!).

    Picasso was a master of imaginary he copied and borrowed or if you want to be critical stole ideas and techniques which he made his own in a masterful way he was the Willie Nelson of Modern art! just look at any Picasso work from the most primitive brutalist style to his neo classical the colors shapes curves every single stroke this man made was perfectly in harmony with the image and feeling he wanted to convey every one of his works is like a moment and his feelings frozen in time. I remember when I was a kid I hated modern art and Picasso I just did not understand it used to think any 5 year old could paint that! its all so deceivingly simple yet it would take many lifetimes just to master only of his periods..on the other hand Bacon, Rothko .and Pollock are still a challenge to my understanding and appreciation ..

    @Ozzrya91 Most art historians like most musicologists are people who really wanted to be artists but didn't have the talent/ courage. They spend their lives surrounded by art but are really outside of it. They see the works as documents or technical processes or as wealth/possessions. It really is a shame. Art has within itself many of the hidden and secret meanings of life and of ourselves (our minds). But really only artists can see this and they talk through art (another world completely).

    This show and the commentary of Gary Tinterow unfortunately tells us nothing important about these works of Picasso. The commentary of this video is particularly superficial and trival dealing as it does with information which is peripheral to the meaning of the works themselves. These art historians really don't understand painting at all. What a waste.
