Pablo Picasso at TATE Liverpool as major summer exhibition 2010

Pablo Picasso's Nude Woman

WORK by Spanish artist Pablo Picasso will form Tate Liverpool’s major summer exhibition in 2010.

The show is hoped to draw even more visitors than the record 194,000 who attended the Albert Dock gallery's high profile Klimt exhibition last year.

One of the most recognised figures in 20th contemporary art, Picasso was a painter, draughtsman and sculptor as well as co-founder of the revolutionary Cubist movement.

He is almost as well known for his colourful personal life as for the more than 50,000 works he created.

Born in Malaga, Picasso spent much of his working life in France, where he died in 1973 at the age of 91.
