The Centre Pompidou is highlighting Rineke Dijkstra’s 2009 video installation, 'I See a Woman Crying (Tate Liverpool)', which documents nine school children observing a Pablo Picasso painting. The three-screen high-definition work captures the subjects' emotional and intellectual reactions to Picasso’s 1937 portrait 'Weeping Woman', which remains off-camera throughout the piece. The installation is structured into four parts, transitioning from formal description to an exploration of artistic intent.

  • Artists: Rineke Dijkstra, Pablo Picasso
  • People: Dora Maar, Rudi Fuchs
  • Museums: Centre Pompidou, Tate Liverpool, Stedelijk Museum
  • Locations: Paris, Liverpool, Amsterdam
