Regina Hackett writes about Picasso: Masterpieces from the Musee Picasso in Paris on view at the Seattle Art Museum through January 17, 2011.  She writes: "The best thing about the Picasso exhibit … stems from its history. More than 90 percent of the 100-plus paintings, sculptures and drawings were not sold but saved by the artist and transferred after his death to the Musée Picasso in Paris, now closed for renovation. Because this material never entered the market and its care was excellent, the surfaces remain fresh."
