A Life of Picasso Volume II

1907 1917: The Painter of Modern Life

Beschreibung

Intends to recreate the Pablo Picasso's life and work during the decade of 1907-17 - a period during which the artist and Georges Braque invented Cubism and to that extent engendered modernism. Bringing a fresh light to bear on the artist's sensationalised private life, this title presents a view of this paradoxical man of his paradoxical work.
