Keeping it in the family: never-before-seen Picasso works to go on show in New York with help from artist's descendants

Two exhibitions dedicated to Pablo Picasso will open this spring on New York's Upper East Side, both organized in collaboration with the artist's descendants and featuring works never before displayed publicly. 'Picasso: Tête-à-tête' at Gagosian (through July 3) is presented with Paloma Picasso, the artist's daughter, and includes 12 never-before-seen works from her personal collection. Two blocks north, 'Pablo Picasso: Still Life' at Almine Rech (through July 18) is organized by dealer Almine Rech and her husband Bernard Ruiz-Picasso, a grandson of the artist, with over 60% of works never exhibited before. The Gagosian show will be the gallery's last at its 980 Madison Avenue space before moving out for Bloomberg Philanthropies.
