add to cart   close window

The article discusses an excursion to Paris. Naturally a Picasso exhibition, whenever it occurs, towers above all others. Any public appearance of painter Pablo Picasso is a sensation. The way in which even the people most opposed to his politics respond to the multifarious activities of this man of genius is in itself proof of the difference in the artistic atmosphere of Europe and America. It is not easy to imagine U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower lending the authority of his presence to the opening of an exhibition of a. Communist painter.
