About the Item
In the world of art exhibitions, posters often serve as an iconic glimpse into the creative world of the artists involved. One such piece is the 1967 original exhibition poster designed by none other than the legendary Pablo Picasso. Titled "Céramiques Gravures Originales," this poster was created to promote an exhibition at the renowned Galerie Lucie Weill in Paris, France, highlighting Picasso's groundbreaking works in ceramics and prints.
The exhibition "Céramiques Gravures Originales" focused on two key facets of Picasso's vast artistic practice: his ceramic works and his original prints. By 1967, Picasso had already established himself as one of the most influential and innovative artists of the 20th century. His exploration of different mediums had reached new heights, particularly in the realm of ceramics. During the mid-1950s and early 1960s, Picasso began collaborating with the Madoura Pottery workshop in Vallauris, France, producing a remarkable body of ceramic pieces that featured his signature playful, abstract style.
In addition to ceramics, Picasso continued to push the boundaries of printmaking, experimenting with etching, lithography, and linocut techniques. The exhibition at Galerie Lucie Weill was a celebration of this dual passion for both ceramics and prints, showcasing works that were full of both artistic vigor and intricate technique.
The exhibition poster, designed by Picasso himself, reflects the artist's characteristic boldness, simplicity, and visual clarity. The central image of the poster features a striking black-and-white lithographic design that embodies Picasso's unique approach to line, form, and abstraction. The lithograph, while relatively simple in composition, exudes a sense of dynamism that mirrors Picasso's exuberance and innovation in his ceramic and print works.
The poster’s design includes elements that Picasso often used in his ceramics, such as curved, organic shapes, stylized faces, and playful, abstract forms. The way the lines flow across the page not only captures the viewer’s attention but also evokes the tactile nature of ceramic objects, hinting at the materiality and texture of Picasso’s work in this medium. The poster is both a visual introduction to the exhibition and a piece of art in its own right, serving as a testament to Picasso’s mastery of both fine art and commercial design.
Galerie Lucie Weill, located in Paris, has long been a prestigious space for showcasing avant-garde art. As one of the leading galleries in the city, it has hosted numerous exhibitions featuring prominent 20th-century artists. The 1967 exhibition "Céramiques Gravures Originales" was a significant moment in Picasso’s career, as it allowed him to present his works in a format that combined both his fine art legacy and his exploration of everyday materials, like clay, with the highly technical process of printmaking.
Picasso’s presence at Galerie Lucie Weill further cemented his status as a revolutionary figure in the art world, constantly pushing the boundaries of what was possible in both technique and style. The exhibition drew attention not only to Picasso’s technical innovations but also to his continuous engagement with the traditional and the modern.
The 1967 Céramiques Gravures Originales poster remains a cherished collector's item today, representing a pivotal moment in Picasso’s late career. As an artifact, the poster offers insight into the themes and approaches that defined Picasso's work during this period. The exhibition itself was crucial in bringing attention to the importance of ceramics within Picasso's artistic oeuvre, which had often been overshadowed by his paintings and sculptures.
Collectors and art enthusiasts continue to seek original prints of this exhibition poster, both for its historical significance and its timeless artistic appeal. It stands as an essential piece of Picasso’s legacy, one that merges his diverse creative expressions into a single, visually compelling statement.
The 1967 exhibition poster for "Céramiques Gravures Originales" at Galerie Lucie Weill is more than just a promotional piece—it's an integral part of Picasso's continued exploration of new forms, new media, and new ways of communicating his ideas. Through its bold design, this poster not only serves as a marker of the specific 1967 exhibition but also captures the essence of Picasso’s artistic genius and his ongoing impact on the world of contemporary art. As with many of his works, the poster stands as a bridge between the personal and the universal, inviting viewers to engage with Picasso’s ever-evolving creative journey.

Pablo Picasso
One of the most prolific and revolutionary artists the world has ever seen, Pablo Picasso had a tremendous impact on the development of 20th-century modern art. Although he is best known for his association with the Cubist movement, which he founded with Georges Braque, Picasso’s influence extends to Surrealism, neoclassicism and Expressionism.
“Every act of creation is, first of all, an act of destruction,” the Spanish artist proclaimed. In Picasso's Cubist paintings, he emphasizes the two-dimensionality of the canvas, breaking with conventions regarding perspective, foreshortening and proportion. Picasso was inspired by Iberian and African tribal art. One of his most famous pre-Cubist works is Les Demoiselles d’Avignon (1907), a painting considered immoral and shocking at the time for its depiction of nude women whose faces resemble Iberian tribal masks.
Picasso made many portraits in this style, most often of the women in his life, their expressively colored faces composed of geometric shards of surface planes. In Woman in a Hat (Olga), 1935, he painted his first wife as an assemblage of abstract forms, leaving the viewer to decipher the subject through the contrasting colors and shapes. Picasso was a tireless artist, creating more than 20,000 paintings, drawings, prints, ceramics and sculptures. Tracing his life’s work reveals the progression of modern art, on which he had an unparalleled influence.

Picasso 1957 original exhibition poster Pâtes Blanches: Empreintes Originales
By Pablo Picasso
Located in PARIS, FR
The 1957 original exhibition poster titled Pâtes Blanches: Empreintes Originales éditées par Madoura et Gravures Rares by Pablo Picasso is a significant piece that reflects the artist's deep involvement with ceramic art and printmaking during that period. The poster was created to promote an exhibition at Galerie 65 in Cannes, France, showcasing Picasso’s ceramics and rare engravings, with a particular focus on his work with pâtes blanches, or white clay.
By the late 1940s, Picasso had become increasingly involved with ceramics, producing a vast number of pieces at the Madoura pottery studio in Vallauris, France. The studio, owned by Georges and Suzanne Ramié, became a creative haven for Picasso, where he could explore new forms of expression beyond painting and sculpture. His work with ceramics brought forth a unique blend of classical forms and modernist abstraction, often infusing traditional pottery with his distinctive artistic style.
The term pâtes blanches refers to the white earthenware clay that Picasso used for creating his ceramic pieces. This material allowed him to experiment with various textures and finishes, which he combined with his characteristic line work and engraving techniques. The poster advertises this innovative work, highlighting the original prints and rare engravings that were part of the exhibition.
The exhibition at Galerie 65 in Cannes ran throughout the summer of 1957 and offered art lovers and collectors the opportunity to view and acquire some of Picasso's rarest ceramic works and prints. It was a testament to Picasso's versatility as an artist, showcasing his ability to transcend different mediums while maintaining the boldness and originality that defined his career.
The poster itself, with Picasso's handwritten details and a depiction of one of his engravings, serves as both a promotional tool and a work of art in its own right. It reflects Picasso's personal touch and his deep connection to the work he produced during this period.
Today, this exhibition poster remains a coveted item for collectors of Picasso’s works and 20th-century art, representing a unique moment in Picasso's extensive and varied artistic journey.
