Printmaker Francoise Gilot - life after Picasso - a podcast by RNZ

Napier is about to host the largest collection of artwork by pioneering fine art printmaker Françoise Gilot ever exhibited in the Southern Hemisphere. Françoise is a spritely 100 years old - and for 80 of them, this artist tour de force has experimented wth colour lithography.... She lived with Picasso in the late 1940s, and while already an established artist in her own right, she acknowledges that she learnt much by watching his printmaking techniques over that time. Lynn Freeman talks with Dr Adrian Ormsby, the Curator of the exhibition Francoise Gilot The Pioneer, which opens at Creative Arts Napier on the 22nd of April.
