Throughout his life, especially during his final years, Picasso sustained a dialogue with works by masters of the past that had long haunted him, explored through paint, pencil, and prints. Noted scholar Susan Galassi, Senior Curator, the Frick Collection, examines the particular qualities that Picasso brings to his analyses of masterpieces, including paintings inspired by Diego de Velázquez’s Las Meninas (ca. 1656) and Eugene Delacroix’s Women of Algiers (1834), both on view in the exhibition Picasso Black and White. Within this lecture Galassi will explore his limited black-and-white palatte, and the often abrupt jumps that the artist made between the use of black and white and brilliant color evident in his numerous series. A reception and exhibition viewing immediately follows.
