Dear Colleagues,
I went to the Picasso Exhibition in Edinburgh on Friday 19 October and have to say it was amazing. Covering almost two floors, not only did it feature a large number of his paintings but included work by Wyndham Lewis, Henry Moore, Duncan Grant, Ben Nicholson, David Hockney and others and was brilliant at showing how Picasso had influenced them. Unfortunately the exhibition finishes on 4th November so it is unlikely many of our class would get the opportunity to visit, but what is good is the fact that there is loads of really good and concise information on the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art's website about the exhibition (click on the picture above to go to the web page). Once there you just need to click on to 'the show' then 'highlights' where there are quite a few of the pictures featured in the show but just as importantly descriptions about the paintings themselves as well as showing the influence of Picasso, all of which really does give the flavour of the exhibition.
Anne
