Exhibition at the Musée du Luxembourg, Paris, 13 September 2023 - 28 January 2024

Writer, poet and aesthete Gertrude Stein (1874-1946), an American Jewish immigrant, moved to Paris in 1903, shortly after the arrival of Picasso, then a young artist. Their position as foreigners and their marginality underpinned their membership of the Parisian bohemian scene and their artistic freedom. Their friendship crystallised around their respective works, which were the founders of Cubism and the pictorial and literary avant-gardes of the twentieth century.

This exhibition catalogue, which explores the complicity and inventiveness of Gertrude Stein and Pablo Picasso, looks at a century of art, poetry, music and theatre through the eyes of such great figures as Henri Matisse, Juan Gris, Marcel Duchamp, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Bruce Nauman, Carl Andre, Joseph Kosuth, Hanne Darboven, Glenn Ligon, John Cage, Bob Wilson and Philip Glass.
