Cincinnati Art Museum Opens Picasso Master Prints Exhibition

The Cincinnati Art Museum presents an exhibition “Picasso Master Prints”, on view December 17, 2011 – May 13, 2012.

Pablo Picasso, Two Clowns, 1954. Color lithograph. Museum Purchase, 1955.767.

Picasso Master Prints surveys the career of one of the most important and influential artists of the 20th century. The exhibition presents more than sixty prints by Picasso.

Picasso’s ingenious magic with etching, lithography and linocuts is explored in six decades of printmaking. This exhibition presents the prodigious invention of Pablo Picasso in the medium of printmaking. The works selected from the Art Museum’s permanent collection reveal his dialogue with old masters of European art, his Spanish heritage, and the highly autobiographical content of images of wives and lovers.

Located in scenic Eden Park, the Cincinnati Art Museum features an unparalleled art collection of more than 60,000 works spanning 6,000 years. In addition to displaying its own broad collection, the Art Museum also hosts several national and international traveling exhibitions each year.
