A Cut Above
The most comprehensive exhibition devoted to Picasso’s imaginative and original uses of paper ever to be held has just opened at the Royal Academy. It shows that Picasso didn’t just draw on paper – he tore it, burnt it, and made it three-dimensional. There’s much to see from studies for ‘Guernica’ to a 4.8-metre-wide collage. The exhibition brings together more than 300 works on paper spanning the artist’s 80-year career.
Picasso and Paper at the Royal Academy until 13 April.
