The genius of Malaga "can be considered at the same time as the first modern and the last classic". This is what Cécile Debray says, president of the Picasso Museum in Paris, where the largest number of his works are housed.

This Informe Semanal' programme examines Picasso's life and analyses his fundamental pieces, such as Guernica. Shortly after meeting Dora Maar, he painted it in Paris, commissioned by the Second Republic for the Spanish pavilion at the 1937 Universal Exhibition in Paris. The German bombing of the Basque city inspired the painter to create a universal painting. For decades, at his request, it remained in the Museum of Modern Art in New York and, since 1981, it has been on display at the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid.
