Organized by Fondazione Roma with Marsilio Arte, Picasso the Foreigner opens at the Museo del Corso - Polo Museale on February 27, 2025 and is realized thanks to the collaboration with the Musée national Picasso-Paris (MNPP), main lender, the Palais de la Port Dorée in Paris, the Museu Picasso Barcelona, the Musée Picasso in Antibes, the Musée Magnelli - Musée de la céramique in Vallauris and important and historic private European collections. The original idea of the project was born from Annie Cohen-Solal, curator of the exhibition with an intervention by Johan Popelard from the Musée national Picasso-Paris.

Picasso the Foreigner presents over 100 works by the artist, as well as documents, photographs, letters, and videos: a project that is enriched - for the second Italian stage after Palazzo Reale in Milan and Palazzo Te in Mantua - with a nucleus of unpublished works, selected by the curator exclusively for the exhibition path of the Museo del Corso – Polo Museale.

The exhibition particularly features an important section dedicated to the Roman spring of 1917 spent by Pablo Picasso with Jean Cocteau, Erik Satie, Serge de Diaghilev, and Leonid Massine.
