Young Picasso in Paris

This focus exhibition is centered on Pablo Picasso’s Le Moulin de la Galette (ca. November 1900). A cornerstone of the Guggenheim’s early modern collection, this painting is also one of the most important from the artist’s initial stay in Paris. An assembling of works executed over the next year explores this time of artistic and personal transformation and further demonstrates Picasso’s fascination with the spectacle and the vitality of a fin-de-siècle Paris, as well as his shrewd exercises in character study
