The Jane Kahan Gallery will once again exhibit at the International Fine Art & Antique Dealers Show at New York’s Park Avenue Armory, October 21 – 27, 2011.

The gallery will present a “show within a show,” UNEXPECTED PICASSO, highlighting the artist’s exploration of media other than paint.

Jane Kahan was one of the first galleries in America to specialize in the ceramics that Picasso created at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris in the South of France from 1947 until his death.  UNEXPECTED PICASSO will feature some of the rarest of these editions, plus numerous unique pieces handpainted by the artist. In addition the gallery will exhibit several rare and important Picasso tapestries, a medium rarely seen outside of museums.

Rounding out the presentation will be rare examples of the jewelry Picasso developed from the designs of his ceramics, and top examples of  “linocuts” — prints that were created from matrixes that the artist carved into sheets of linoleum.  These are among the most graphic and highly prized of the artist’s works on paper.

The benefit preview party for the Society of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center will be on Thursday, October 20.
