"This exhibition dissects the transitional phase of Picasso’s practice, bridging the melancholic depths of the blue period with the geometric rigor of emerging cubist structures."

About

Featuring over fifty seminal works, this retrospective examines how the physical geography of the Mediterranean influenced Pablo Picasso’s formal language. By juxtaposing charcoal sketches with major oil canvases, the curators highlight the artist's obsession with fragmenting the horizon. The show offers a rare intimate look at his technical pivot from representational depth toward the multifaceted planes that would eventually define 20th-century modernism.
