En savoir plus sur le livre

Over seven decades, Pablo Picasso revisited themes like women, bulls, and the Old Masters, alongside political, literary, and mythical subjects. This large-format, 300-page book delves into his evolving perspective on these motifs through a collection of 200 graphic prints, lithographs, drawings, and collages, spanning from the early 1900s to the 1960s. The artworks, ranging from black and white to vibrant colors, showcase his diverse styles, including classic, cubistic, and surrealistic forms. Accompanying texts provide historical context while offering contemporary reevaluations of the pieces. The book contrasts Picasso’s graphic works with the classical paintings that influenced him, highlighting parallels and the impact of Old Masters like Rembrandt, Cranach, and Goya. Additionally, it features a biographical chronology, a comprehensive list of Picasso’s artworks, and a bibliography. Edited by Dr. Anita Beloubek-Hammer, curator at the Kupferstichkabinett in Berlin, the book reflects the museum's long-standing connection to Picasso, having acquired one of his works in 1912 and housing a significant collection of his graphic art today.
