Exhibition description:
This exhibition was centered on The Studio (1928), a pivotal painting by Pablo Picasso that was purchased by Peggy Guggenheim in 1942 and that is now one of the masterpieces in her collection. The Studio was presented along with other paintings by Picasso, which were either realized at the same time or depicted a similar theme. They are on loan from the The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York, and Musée Picasso, Paris. Additional drawings, paintings and prints were borrowed from different collections and museums, in order to provide a contextual, yet focused analysis of The Studio.
