Description

French avant-garde painter, poet and artist Francis Picabia became most closely associated with the Cubism movement in the early 20th century but was also one of the first artists of the Dada movement and later dabbled in Surrealism. His style was always evolving, and his works can be viewed in a variety of mediums. MoMA presents this first-ever US retrospective of Picabia’s work, with roughly 200 pieces that showcase the broad range of his talents. For more information, visit moma.org.
