CLEVELAND MUSEUM OF ART

MAY 24 THROUGH AUGUST 23, 2020

Pablo Picasso’s prolonged

engagement with paper is

the subject of the ground-

breaking exhibition

“Picasso and Paper,” orga-

nized by the Cleveland

Museum of Art and the

Royal Academy of Arts,

London, in collaboration

with the Musée National

Picasso, Paris. “Picasso and

Paper” will be on view in

Cleveland through August.

Showcasing over 300

works spanning the

artist’s entire career, the

exhibition highlights

Picaso’s deep appreciation

of the physical world and

his desire to manipulate

diverse materials.

Picasso’s relentless explo-

ration of working on and

with paper is evident in

the many assembled col-

lages; sculptures created

from pieces of torn and burnt paper;

documentary photographs and

manipulated photographs on paper;

and an array of work using various

printmaking techniques.
