REVIEW of Imagine Picasso: Immersive Art Exhibit In Atlanta

It literally walks you through all stages of his life from which he drew inspiration.

By Kimberly Wright - Publisher of Decatur Macaroni KID and East Atlanta Macaroni KID April 21, 2022


Imagine Picasso: Immersive Art Exhibit was a truly interesting insight into his life and the twists and turns he took. Picasso was a very interesting character who always amazed me. Born Pablo Ruiz Picasso, in France, he is known to the world affectionately as Picasso. He captured the beauty of the world through his eyes and famous paintings. Picasso’s Cubism artwork and art movement take you on his very personal life challenges of depression and even joy. The artwork speaks volumes and is still widely found throughout the world today. I am able to spot Picasso's artwork in any room and have a few pieces of the replicated artwork myself

On behalf of Decatur Macaroni KID,  East Atlanta Macaroni KID, Annabelle Mauger, Julien Baron, Androula Michael, Rudy Ricciotti, and the Picasso Administration I personally invite you to visit The Imagine Picasso Exhibit here in Atlanta. It is so near and dear to my heart. Just imagine being greeted by at least 200 pieces of his artwork followed up with his very detailed journey from 1881 to 1973 without a single chapter skipped. It is loaded with his beautiful work. Picasso’s story is beautifully shared and illustrated. This exhibit is a must-see for everyone. It literally walks you through all stages of his life from which he drew his inspiration. So over the period of 1881 to 1973, you are able to experience his constant reinvention of life with a revolutionized vision.

I was hosted by the exhibit and I highly recommend the VIP option for $55 because it comes with a great tote and nice poster well beyond the ticket cost. Please allow yourself about an hour to visit however it took me an hour and a half because of my love for Picasso. The gift shop is a Picasso paradise! There was so much to choose from in every price range. I got some postcards, a mug, and a shirt. It was truly a dream.
