De Young Museum of Art, San Francisco hosts a large exhibition
"Calder - Picasso".
For the first time in the United States, the exhibition brought together over 100 sculptures, paintings, drawings and drawings by Alexander Calder (1898–1976) and Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), two of the most famous, innovative and influential artists of the 20th century.
Conceived and organized by Alexander Calder's grandson, Alexander S.K. Rower, and Pablo Picasso's grandson Bernard Ruiz-Picasso, this exhibition compares the works of the two artists, showing both the intriguing parallels between these great innovators and the personality traits and perspectives that make each artist truly unique. They confirm the revolutionary contribution of two authors who changed our ideas about form and space and ... the very definition of art.
