English Language Broadcast - Picasso's 'sacred and profane' influences at the Thyssen - 07/10/23
Today we return to the Picasso year, to those year-long celebrations surrounding the 50th anniversary of the Spanish artists' death, with the Thyssen Museum in Madrid's final Año Picasso exhibition. The exhibition is titled "Picasso: The Sacred and the Profane" and focuses on the influence religious imagery had on the painter best-known for 'cubism', and his return to this imagery in his later years. We take a walk around the exhibition and talk with its curator, Paloma Alarcó, after the news from Spain.
