Nestled in the heart of Paris, the Hotel Albe Saint-Michel provides a highly comfortable and artistic setting in which to stay while you discover the autumn exhibitions in Paris.
Two exhibitions and two little-known sides of Picasso at the Picasso Museum
Picasso and the Comic Strip and Picasso Poet are the two temporary exhibitions being presented by the Musée Picasso until January 3rd, 2021. The first focusses on the great Spanish artist’s love of the comic strip medium. This love was so great that the artist drew inspiration from the codes and characteristic design elements of comics to create his works. The second exhibition invites you to discover another different side of Picasso by exploring his manuscript poems and understanding the parallels and correspondences between his texts and his paintings. Go (re) discover the great Pablo Picasso at 5 Rue de Thorigny.

These extraordinary images were produced for the magazine Vogue, the designer Coco Channel and various other markets.
