Picasso exhibit to end
The four-month-old Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas concludes
its special exhibitions program with Picasso: The Cubist Portraits of
Fernande Olivier.
Approximately
25 works in the mediums of painting, drawing and sculpture are on display
through May 9.
Most
notable as a painter, Picasso was also one of the 20th century’s
most ground-breaking sculptors, greatly influencing the evolution of
sculptural thought.
The
exhibit offers a rare opportunity to view a central theme expressed
in two-dimensional art and sculpture.
Three
versions of Picasso’s 1909 sculpture Head of a Woman highlight
the exhibit.
The
exhibit was organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington,
D.C., which currently has the only Nasher tour date scheduled.
The
Nasher Sculpture Center is open Thursday through Sunday 11 a.m.-6 p.m.
and Thursday 11 a.m.-9 p.m.
Admission
is $10 for adults, $7 for seniors, $5 for students and free for members
