A Terrific Exhibition!!! It brings out the evolution of a genius that was Pablo Picasso!!! Picasso is my all time favorite artist, and this exhibition traces the different styles and techniques Picasso mastered from the early Blue Period to his late career. It illuminates the special bond Chicago has with Picasso and how pivotal was been the role of AIC in the awareness of the artist! I am specially Thankful for the inclusion of 22 illustrations from the Vollard Suite, [where Picasso inserted himself as the mythical man-beast Minotur into scenes of bacchanalian feasts], which has always intrigued me!
