The largest public collection of Picasso’s work, the “Picasso de Picasso,” came to the French state from the artist’s own studios. Since March 2024 it has filled three floors of the Hôtel Salé in a hang that moves through his symbolist, cubist, classical, surrealist and political turns and looks at how his work has been received and argued over. Smaller focus displays are set within the collection rooms.

Invited by the museum, Kuitca, born in Buenos Aires in 1961 and still based there, painted straight onto the chapel walls a web of crossing lines, like folds in a map, that turns the room into a new pictorial space. He has worked in this cubism-derived manner since his Argentine pavilion at the 2007 Venice Biennale. He casts the piece as a meeting with Picasso, borrowing the image of art history as a baggage carousel from his earlier paintings.

After Picasso’s death in 1973, his widow Jacqueline Roque asked Malraux to help with the estate. A visit to Notre-Dame-de-Vie, the painter’s last home and studio, showed him Picasso’s personal collection and a part of his imaginary museum. The visit led to La Tête d’obsidienne, a fictionalized book of memories and conversations. It reveals less about a real friendship, which Picasso hardly ever mentioned, than about how Malraux refined his own theories through Picasso’s work.

Marking the centenary of Cahiers d’Art, founded in 1926 by Christian Zervos, this small dossier show recalls the journal’s visual world and its close ties to Picasso, to whom it devoted dozens of articles until the late 1950s. Picasso’s works are set beside drawings and paintings by other artists, from the Douanier Rousseau to Miró, Dalí and Max Ernst, tracing the journal’s Cubist lineage of Surrealism and its Surrealist rereading of Cubism.
