Mariánská Gallery in České Budějovice hosts these days a unique exhibition "Picasso Life", which focuses on Picasso's life and his lifelong work. Her intention is to introduce the icon of Cubism not only as an artist but also as a human being to the young generation. The curators of the entire exhibition managed to convey the passionate collector Pablo Picassa and the owner of the exhibition "The World of Picasso" on the loan of part of his collection of this artist.

The whole conception of the exhibition is suitable both for art experts, school groups, and for anyone who just wants to make the afternoon more pleasant. "The longer I look at the works of Pablo Picassa, the more I find out," said Pavel Mazánek, a student of the Marianská Gallery, who visited his class in the classroom after seeing the whole exhibition.

The "Picasoo Life" exhibition is a cross-section of 125 exhibits, whether prints, lithographs or drawings, documentaries and films. The visitor will find, for example, 64 copies of the first edition of Zevros, posters from the galleries and exhibitions by Pablo Picassa. Few know that Picasso loved animals, which were also reflected in his lifelong work, in which the drawing of animals is interesting by brush stroke.

The most important piece of this exhibition is the oil painting, which is located in the main hall of the exhibition, and we are very happy to lend this oil painting to Pablo Picassa, which is part of the edition of about 12 works with the hero theme painted by Pablo Picasso to the buyer, who did not take the work ended in private collections all over the world.
