As the old century closed, the movies promised the “annihilation of time and space” and eventually revolutionized beholders’ experience of the world.
Among the very first patrons of the nascent cinema in Europe were the painters Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque.
In the summer of 1996 I organized an exhibition for the Pace gallery, which represented the estate of the artist at the time. Rita Reinhardt, the artist’s widow, had long wanted to see an exhibition of the two artists.
