Interpreting MoMA
Please join us for MoMA’s bimonthly program welcoming individuals who are Deaf or hard of hearing to participate in an ASL-interpreted private gallery talk focusing on one of MoMA’s exhibitions, along with a wine and snack reception. In February, we will explore the exhibition Picasso in Fontainebleau with curator Anne Umland. The exhibition presents four monumental canvases, along with other paintings, drawings, pastels, and etchings made during the artist’s brief three-month stay in a rented villa in Fontainebleau, France. Rarely seen photographs of the studio and the Picasso family will further contextualize the artist’s day-to-day life and artistic practice. Together, we will examine new discoveries about the process and experimental spirit that mark Pablo Picasso’s work in Fontainebleau. Interpreting MoMA is offered free of charge. Space is limited and advance registration is required. Registration opens on January 4, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. For more information or to register, please email AccessPrograms@moma.org or call Access Programs at 212-408-6447. Image description: A portrait-oriented painting with a segmented composition resembling a collage, showcasing two different artistic styles by Picasso. A profile of a woman’s face is in the center, painted in his classical style with warm tones and pink skin. Gestural paintings of hands are on either side of her. Cubist abstracted still lifes in white, black, brown, green, and blue tones are painted at the top and bottom of the work, with a portrait of a man and woman dancing at the top left corner.
