In 2003, Picasso created a research company called DWP Editions and started gathering information on her grandfather’s works.[5][6] She is currently working on a catalogue raisonné of Picasso’s sculptures with a team of researchers.[7] This catalogue will present over 2000 three-dimensional works including materials like plaster, bronze, wood, terra-cotta, carboard and paper.[8]
