Political Paintings and Addressing Misogyny

Extensive Picasso Exhibition Opens in Hong Kong:

An extensive exhibition of works by Pablo Picasso, the renowned Spanish artist, has opened in Hong Kong. This exhibition, one of the largest collections of Picasso's works in Asia, includes more than 100 pieces, ranging from paintings and drawings to sculptures and ceramics.

A key focus of the exhibition is the exploration of the political and social dimensions of Picasso's works, including his critiques of war and politics, as well as the portrayal of women in his art. Some of his works, particularly the portraits of women, have drawn attention for their misogynistic undertones.

The exhibition aims to explore these aspects through discussions and lectures, encouraging dialogue on the representation of women in Picasso's art. Held at the Hong Kong Museum of Contemporary Art, the exhibition will run until September 2025, and is expected to attract thousands of art lovers from around the world.
