"Hommage à Pablo Picasso. Dessins. Sculptures. Céramiques". Exposition Musée Petit Palais. 19.11.1966-12.2.1967

A display of Pablo Picasso’s abstract sculptures from the "Hommage à Pablo Picasso" exhibition at the Musée Petit Palais in Paris (19 November 1966 – 12 February 1967). The modernist works, appearing as stylized busts or heads, are arranged on simple pedestals of varying heights. Their angular forms and features are defined by bold, black painted lines on a lighter-colored material. Stark lighting casts deep shadows on the walls behind, emphasizing the three-dimensional quality of the artworks.
