October 11th, 2005 It should come as no surprise that the greatest painter of the 20th Century was also its finest printmaker, yet the length and breadth of Pablo Picasso’s graphic oeuvre is startling indeed. He was especially attracted to etching as a vehicle for his imagery and turned to this technique frequently throughout his career. Following an extended trip to Italy in 1917, Picasso turned away from the austerity of Cubism and once again took up the representation of the human form. Gradually this developed into the style referred to as Neo-Classical. Prof. Dr. Enrique Mallen.
For the first time ever we will present such an work of Pablo Picasso in Aruba.
Tierra del Sol and the South End Art Foundation hereby invite you to participate in the presentation of this unique piece of the Neo- Classical collection of Picasso with Alica van Romondt of the Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds als quest speaker.

There will be a flamenco show from his birth place Spain and live music by C-zar Olarte.
