Musée Picasso
Paris Learn more about what's on at Musée Picasso and the artists shaping its programme.The Musée Picasso is located in the Hôtel Salé, one of the most beautiful 17th century private mansions in Paris. The Musée Picasso collection comprises over 5,000 works and tens of thousands of archived pieces. For its quality and scope as well as the range of art forms it encompasses, this collection is the only one in the world to present both Picasso’s complete painted, sculpted, engraved and illustrated œuvre and a precise record of the artist’s creative process.
The Musée national Picasso-Paris’s exceptional collection is a result of a dation from Picasso’s family members. Representative of Pablo Picasso’s entire career, the collection is composed of major works from the artist’s workshops, which he preserved until his death, and of his entire archives (more than 200,000 pieces), forming a faithful and intimate portrait of one of the most emblematic modern artists. This collection – considered to be the most important in the world – is housed in an exceptional 17th century mansion, nestled in the historic heart of French culture.
