Painting

F rancis Picabia, born in 1879 in Paris, was a relentlessly experimental modernist who moved fluidly through Impressionism, Fauvism, Cubism, Dada, and Surrealism, helping shape key avant-garde movements alongside figures like Duchamp and Man Ray. Though his reputation waned late in life, major retrospectives and museum acquisitions have cemented his status as a pivotal precursor to post-modernism.
