This winter, the Art Institute of Chicago celebrates the unique relationship between Chicago and one of the preeminent artists of the 20th century--Pablo Picasso--with special presentations, singular paintings on loan from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and programs throughout the museum befitting the artist's unparalleled range and influence. The centerpiece of this celebration is the major exhibition Picasso and Chicago, on view from February 20 through May 12, 2013 in the Art Institute's Regenstein Hall , which features more than 250 works selected from the museum's own exceptional holdings and from private collections throughout Chicago. Representing Picasso's innovations in nearly every media--paintings, sculpture, prints, drawings, and ceramics--the works not only tell the story of Picasso's artistic development but also the city's great interest in and support for the artist since the Armory Show of 1913, a signal event in the history of modern art.
The BPA Gallery features "The Art of Stewart Daniels" in February, an exhibit of several large oil paintings on canvas that spring directly from the artist's imagination with vivid color. Picasso said, "I used to draw like Raphael, but it has taken me a whole lifetime to learn to draw like a child." Daniels references this quote to explain the evolution of his work, which will be on exhibit throughout February. View more of Stewarts work online at www.stewartdaniels.com.
