Introduction
Lee Kun-hee Collection: Picasso Ceramics
The 2024 MMCA Lee Kun-hee Collection: Picasso Ceramics, prepared jointly by the National Asian Culture Center and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art Korea(MMCA), unveils 107 pieces of Picasso ceramics from the Lee Kun-hee Collection, which was donated to the MMCA in 2021. This touring exhibition sheds light on Pablo Picasso's world of ceramics, highlighting his genius in modern art and pioneering contributions to contemporary sculpture. Picasso, who viewed the world with a free and innovative perspective, is hailed as a genius of modern art and a leader in Cubism. Until his final years, he never ceased to pursue new challenges and experiments. To him, the sculptural qualities inherent in ceramics brought forth new inspiration for expressing his works in three dimensions.

The period when Picasso delved into ceramics coincided with the zenith of his unique painting style. Thus, his perspective of observing, analyzing, and substituting objects with artworks was directly reflected in his pottery. This signifies Picasso's endowment of sculptural significance to ceramics as a new mode of expression in painting, beyond its functional and utilitarian value. His playful and painterly ceramic works enabled free expression through the characteristics of the materials, elevating the artistic status of ceramic art.

This exhibition categorizes Picasso's ceramic works into nine themes, aiming to present Picasso's unique personality and a new paradigm for ceramics. Through Picasso’s playful and whimsical ceramics, we hope you this exhibition provide an opportunity to explore one’s inner purity and broaden perspective on the world.
