I have sinced talked about it all of my life. I had never seen such a body of work from one artist in my life, I was overwhelmed. I felt so priviledged to have experienced gazing apond this chosen Legacy collection of 700 pieces. I thought how could the French Goverment choose these works from over 45,000 pieces of Picasso's work. I know they must have chosen very carefully. But surely the family must have taken what they considered the best works first. I am trying very hard to locate the poster for that show as I know it was so special. My poster got destroyed bt water damage. I knew that the Walker and the MOMA were the only two museums in America that Picasso's works would show before moving to its permanant home in Paris. I have every piece photographed through the lens of my eyes and stored forever in my mind. Oh how I would love to go to the Musee Picasso and see the show one more time just in case I might have missed something. If I could find that poster I would be so happy. If any one reads this maybe you could suggest how I might obtain the opening night poster. I would be so grateful.
