The rooms where the magic happened: National Gallery of Ireland exhibition explores Picasso’s studios

The National Gallery of Ireland is presenting an exhibition titled "Picasso: From the Studio," which shifts focus from the artist's famous subjects—such as weeping women and bullfighting—to the physical spaces where he created his art. Curated by Janet McLean and Joanne Snrech, the show draws heavily from the Musée Picasso in Paris and includes works spanning Picasso's career, from early scraps in Montmartre to his final farmhouse studio. It features paintings, film, and photographs, including iconic images by Dora Maar documenting the creation of Guernica, and explores how Picasso curated his studios as extensions of his persona.

The National Gallery of Ireland is opening an exhibition titled "Picasso: From the Studio" that shifts focus from the artist's famous subjects—such as weeping women and bullfighting—to the physical spaces where he created his work. Curated by Janet McLean and Joanne Snrech, the show draws heavily from the Musée Picasso in Paris and includes over 100 works, ranging from early pieces made from scraps to late paintings like *Musician* (1972). The exhibition recreates the atmosphere of key studios through paintings, film, and photographs, including iconic images by Dora Maar of Picasso painting *Guernica* (1937). The gallery owns only one Picasso painting, *Still Life with a Mandolin* (1924), which is included.
