Opening Day

A Graphic Journey: Prints by Pablo Picasso from the Dr. Timothy Collins Collection

Saturday, July 15 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.

View the museum’s newest exhibition, A Graphic Journey: Prints by Pablo Picasso from the Timothy Collins Collection. This exhibition presents an insightful gathering of approximately 60 prints by one of the great masters of the 20th Century, Pablo Picasso. It provides a unique window into a significant era in art history and takes a serious look at the artist’s development and creative process. Best known for his paintings and sculptures, Picasso was also a major innovator in the medium of printmaking. He made prints throughout his career — his first in 1899, when he was still a teenager, and his last in 1972, when he was 90 years old.

The exhibition illustrates the three major phases of Picasso’s printmaking career, as well as his signature artistic themes. A special feature of this collection is the number of proofs it contains. These proofs illustrate the unique working relationship Picasso maintained with his printers and their workshops, and allow for close examination of the working process behind it.
