PABLO PICASSO at Jane Kahan Gallery

PABLO PICASSO (1881 – 1973) practically defined art in the 20th century. A protean creator and a relentless experimenter, Picasso had enormous influence on generations of artists in every medium.

PICASSO CERAMICS

From 1947 until 1971 over six hundred of Picasso’s designs were recreated in Vallauris in editions ranging from 25 to 500. Picasso also worked on over 3,500 unique pieces, most of which are in museums, though some become available from time to time. The Jane Kahan Gallery is privileged to carry some of these pieces.

PICASSO PRINTS

As a graphic artist Picasso was a giant, producing over 2,500 intaglio prints, lithographs and linocuts. Condition is a paramount concern when it comes to prints, and forgeries are not unknown. Unless a collector is thoroughly knowledgeable about this complex market, he would do well to consider pursuing this artist with a respected art dealer whose expertise includes fine prints.

PICASSO TAPESTRIES

The Jane Kahan Gallery is one of the few galleries in the world that deal in the rarefied field of Picasso tapestries. Tapestries after some of Picasso’s most famous paintings, including Demoiselles D’Avignon and La Danse were created in collaboration with Nelson Rockefeller for his personal collection. There are also Picasso tapestries by master weaver Yvette Cauquil Prince.

Buying art long distance — whether by mail, over the phone or through the Internet — is problematic. The Jane Kahan Gallery does not quote prices except to established clients, nor can we provide informal estimates of pieces that you may own (though we do perform Picasso Appraisals for a fee). Our function is to help our clients acquire the works of art that best suit their tastes and pocketbooks.

That is why we seek a direct relationship that will better help us to understand your needs. Please give us a call to discuss your specific needs. If you plan to come to New York in the near future, we’d be happy to set up an appointment so that we can get to know one another. Or just drop by when you’re in the neighborhood. We look forward to hearing from you.
