Triumph of Pan
PIcasso in Occupied Paris
How did Picasso, a known anti-fascist, not only survive but manage to produce art in Paris during the war? Why did he stay in France at great personal risk?
Several of Picasso's fellow artists and intellectuals also remained in France. Why did they too remain in France? What were their circumstances?
We examine these questions and review Picasso's work from the war years.
