The Philadelphia Museum of Art has an exhibit called “Synthetic Cubism” which runs through April 25. It features 214 works of art by Picasso and others. On display is Picasso’s “Glass of Absinthe”, which is his only free-standing sculpture. It’s very interesting and looks as though he had a few too may absinthes while sculpting it.  :)

    I love this piece! I believe the Museum of Modern Art owns one! I saw one version there quite awhile ago and it was totally awesome! Like absinthe itself it presents one with several views!
