Life with Picasso

Françoise Gilot met Pablo Picasso in May of 1943 and soon after embarked on a ten-year relationship with him.

Life with Picasso encapsulates their time together and provides galvanizing insights into one of the greatest artists of all time. Picasso’s moods, social world, ideas about art and love, artistic process and feelings about parenting are all described with the care and perceptiveness of the person closest to him, herself a highly intelligent observer, a very fine painter and an engaging writer. Francoise Gilot and Benjamin Doller, a Chairman of the Americas at Sotheby’s and an expert on Picasso, will discuss the artist’s life and work.

A book signing follows the event.
