Picasso is in Toronto this summer, and so is Dora Maar and 146 other art works, at the Art Gallery of Ontario. I visited the show at its opening weekend at end of April. It is wonderful to see so many of his works all at once, and in person (and recognize how inferior the reproduction of these works in books and on posters are). The show is organized by timeline and covers Picasso's whole career. It is a great opportunity to study the evolution of his output.

My way of understanding Picasso, besides intense looking and thinking, is to make drawings of his works and colour them.
The "Portrait of Dora Maar" is the selected image to market this exhibition. Below are my studies of this lovely painting.
