This clever show sees Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein having a conversation at a bar in Paris in 1904. Picasso has not yet turned the art world on its head with Cubism, and Einstein is still pondering a “little” idea – his Theory of Relativity. The conversation ranges from the ridiculous to the sublime as these geniuses, joined by interesting bystanders, discuss the accomplishments and foibles of humanity.
