Pablo Picasso was perhaps the most influential artistic figure of the 20th century and Tate Britain is this year exploring the effect he had on art in the UK.
Its methodology is to consider the stimulus Picasso provided to seven British artists: Wyndham Lewis, Duncan Grant, Ben Nicholson, Henry Moore, Francis Bacon, Graham Sutherland and David Hockney. As a parallel theme it also considers how the Spanish artist was received by British collectors.
The show is entitled Picasso & Modern British Art, a title that was chosen for specific reasons, says its curator, Chris Stephens.
