Post 9: Holiday in Paris

For last weekend, me and my family went on a mini holiday to Paris, France. We also payed a visit to two Art Galleries: the Musee Picasso which had just been refurbished and there was new exhibition dedicated to Picasso. As well the Jeu De Paume.

At the Musee Picasso works such as Massacre en Coree which was first painted in 1951. Perhaps it was the original inspiration for the Cybermen in Doctor Who as well as the Storm Troopers in Star Wars.

At the Jeu De Paume, we visited a gallery featuring the photography work of Philippe Halsman, an American photographer who made a name for himself for his unorthodox photography of celebrities such as Muhammad Ali, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Clint Eastwood, Louis Armstrong, Bobby Fischer, Angelica Huston and Marilyn Monroe.
