Picasso exhibition

Picasso exhibition at De Yong is a must see before its closing day on October 10. Unless you want to jump on the plane at your earliest convenience and see it as a part of permanent exposition at Musée National Picasso in Paris, you have two more weeks to enjoy it in San Francisco. More than a hundred mesmerizing masterpieces that make you question what is art, how do we define it? What makes good art and what makes bad art? How subjective should it be? Even though it was rainy and cold in Golden Gate Park, the colorful art adventure was a true joy. The exhibition is extensive covering the works of Pablo Picasso's Expressionist, Blue and Rose Periods, Neoclassical, Surrealist and Cubist movements.  I would say it was an excellent cultural experience for all of us eager to learn a few things about art of the 20th century. My favorites were the bronze «Goat» (1950) and «Cat Catching a Bird» (1939) – I guess I like Picasso animals…
