The Foreigner’s Struggle: Picasso in Milan

Pablo Picasso, the renowned Spanish artist, is widely celebrated for his revolutionary works, but few know that when he first arrived in Paris in 1900, he could barely speak French and faced the stigma of being an outsider.

This exhibition delves deep into that pivotal moment in his life, shedding light on the challenges and transformations he endured during his early years in the French capital.

Over 90 works, alongside documents, photographs, and videos, have been curated to illustrate this fascinating journey.

But don’t think of this as just another Picasso exhibition. The curators, Annie Cohen-Solal and Cécile Debray, have woven together art, politics, and pressing contemporary issues like immigration and identity, creating a narrative that speaks directly to our present day. Below, you’ll find a video in Italian that offers more insight into the exhibit.

Even if you’ve seen many Picasso works before, this exhibition promises a different experience—one that connects the past with today’s social issues in a provocative and engaging way.
