A new exhibition titled “Picasso: Clay, Line and Legacy” has opened at the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens in West Palm Beach, produced in collaboration with Kahan Gallery. The show features an expansive collection of Pablo Picasso’s ceramics, linocuts, prints, drawings, and tapestries from his Vallauris period (mid-1940s to early 1970s), when he worked with the Madoura pottery workshop and the printmaking studio of Hidalgo Arnéra in Vallauris, France. Works on view include pieces like *Femme (A.R. 301)* (1955) and *Quatre Profils Enclases (A.R.87)* (1949), highlighting his experimentation with medium, composition, and form.
The exhibition matters because it brings together two respected institutions—Kahan Gallery, a leader in Modern prints and Picasso ceramics since 1973, and the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, a sanctuary for sculpture and nature—to spotlight a transformative but sometimes overlooked period in Picasso’s career. By tracing his explosive creativity during the Vallauris years, the show reinforces why Picasso remains one of the most influential artists of the past century. The exhibition runs from January 14 to March 15, 2026.
