Dr. Discount: Don’t go Baroque! Save money on Picasso tickets

posted August 5th, 2009

Duke employees can save money on a coming Picasso exhibit at the Nasher Museum.


 

 

The exhibition opens Aug. 20 and will be on view through Jan. 3, 2010. Don’t miss your chance to experience this magnificent art—at a half-price discount. To learn more about the exhibit, visit the Nasher Museum of Art’s Picasso website: http://www.nasher.duke.edu/picasso.

The exhibit presents a groundbreaking exhibition examining Pablo Picasso's lifelong relationship with writers and the many ways in which language affected his work. Picasso and the Allure of Language comprises some 60 works in all media by Picasso, as well as select examples by fellow artist Georges Braque, and photographs, letters, manuscripts and book projects by a diverse group of artists and writers. Together, these works illuminate Picasso's deep and multidimensional interest in writing and language, and challenge the notion of what have been considered highlights of his lifetime of work.
