Picasso鈥檚 other artworks
WHILE Pablo Picasso crafted thousands of ceramic pieces late in his career that reflected his Mediterranean and Spanish roots, this art was long overshadowed by his famous paintings and sculptures.
Now a major exhibition of Picasso’s ceramics is making its US debut as the centerpiece of a new Iberian arts festival at the Kennedy Center in Washington. Many people don’t know about Picasso the ceramist, so curators brought together more than 140 pieces to showcase his work.
Picasso’s approach was a departure from the centuries-old tradition of smooth and polished ceramics as he created his own shapes in clay and employed his own colorful painting style. Curators said they hope the exhibit surprises many visitors who already know some of Picasso’s work.
“He would really reinvent ceramics ... he completely upended the way that you worked with clay” with a more roughhewn approach, said Josephine Matamoros, a Paris-based curator who created the exhibit.
The exhibition is on view through March 22.
