These Picassos prompted a gender war at an Australian gallery. Now the curator says she painted them
An Australian art museum curator has divulged that she was the creator of three paintings that she presented as works by Pablo Picasso -- and which prompted a gender discrimination case when she only permitted female gallery patrons to view them. The paintings were part of an exhibition called the Ladies Lounge at the Museum of Old and New Art in Tasmania curated by Kirsha Kaechele, who said this week that inquiries from the Picasso Administration about the works had prompted her to confess she had painted them. The paintings have been displayed at the museum for more than three years.
