Angela Occhipinti, a famous Italian print art master who used to work with Picasso, is also featured at the show, displaying 16 pieces of her own works.

Among them, there is a piece by her done in cooperation with Picasso.

The 83 year old artist recalls her time working with Picasso.

"I was very lucky. I met Picasso when I was 16. I was studying the print arts in Paris then. Picasso was very skilled at painting. He was not that good-looking then, not tall, with little balding on the top, but his passion and love for painting made him a deadly charming person, especially for women."

Occhipinti met Picasso in 1940s. At that time, Picasso completed Guernica, one of his masterpieces which reflected the cruelty of the Spanish Civil War.
