Pablo Picasso died 50 years ago this month, on April 8, 1973. This year, the cultural wings of the French and Spanish governments will observe the anniversary by collaborating on “Celebration Picasso 1973-2023,” a collection of exhibitions across Europe and the United States that play off each other like the colors and textures of a Cubist painting. These are six shows to seek out.Pablo Picasso died 50 years ago this month, on April 8, 1973.

The Guggenheim will focus on one year of Picasso’s life, exhibiting 10 paintings and works on paper that the artist created after arriving in Paris in the fall of 1900. The show puts particular emphasis on “Le Moulin de la Galette,” an oil painting that offers a good way to compare and contrast Picasso’s style with those of other artists: The famous dance hall that the work depicts was something of a blank canvas for avant-garde brushes, having also been painted by Vincent van Gogh, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Ramon Casas and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.

Here’s a novel way to land a gig curating a high-profile Picasso show: publicly take the man to task. At least that’s how Hannah Gadsby, the Australian stand-up comic whose 2018 special, “Nanette,” included a piercing bit about the artist’s misogyny, got the invitation to work on this Brooklyn Museum exhibition. The show, put together by Gadsby and the curators Lisa Small and Catherine Morris, will look at Picasso’s work with a feminist eye and address, among other issues, the perils of mythologizing the masters. It will also include works from the museum’s collection of feminist art. June 2 through Sept. 24; brooklynmuseum.org.
