About the Publication: Les joues en feu, poemes anciens et poemes inedits, 1917–1921, precede d'un portrait de Pablo Picasso et d'un poeme de Max Jacob et d'un avant-propos de l'auteur (The Cheeks on Fire, Ancient and Unpublished Poems, 1917–1921, Preceded by a Portrait by Pablo Picasso, a Poem by Max Jacob, and a Preface by the Author), published in 1925 by Editions Grasset under the supervision of Bernard Grasset, stands as one of the most important literary and artistic collaborations of the interwar period. The volume unites the poetic sensibility of Max Jacob—a central figure in the Paris avant-garde—with Pablo Picasso’s refined graphic artistry. Printed by Frederic Paillart in Abbeville, the edition exemplifies the exquisite standards of French fine press publishing in the 1920s, with each example meticulously produced on various luxury papers, including Chine, Japon, Hollande, Madagascar, and velin pur fil Lafuma. Picasso’s frontispiece portrait, rendered with classical purity and psychological insight, reflects his friendship with Jacob and their shared intellectual milieu, which also included Guillaume Apollinaire, Jean Cocteau, and Georges Braque. The publication captures a defining moment in the evolution of French modernism—where poetry, art, and typography converged in a unified aesthetic vision. Today, Les joues en feu remains a landmark of Picasso’s early book illustration work and a testament to the enduring dialogue between visual and literary modernism in 20th-century France. About the Artist: Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist whose extraordinary vision revolutionized modern art and defined the visual language of the 20th century. A child prodigy from Malaga, Spain, Picasso's career spanned more than seven decades and encompassed an astonishing range of styles and innovations—from the melancholic Blue and romantic Rose periods to his pioneering invention of Cubism with Georges Braque, which shattered conventional notions of perspective and form. Influenced by the bold expressiveness of El Greco, the structure of Cezanne, and the vitality of African and Iberian sculpture, Picasso became a central figure of the Paris avant-garde, working in creative dialogue with contemporaries such as Henri Matisse, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray. His insatiable experimentation extended across painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, and sculpture, forever expanding the boundaries of artistic expression. A master of reinvention, Picasso profoundly shaped generations of artists who followed—from Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, David Hockney, and Jean-Michel Basquiat to Jeff Koons and Banksy—cementing his status as a timeless cultural icon whose works remain among the most sought after worldwide. His landmark painting Les Femmes d'Alger (Version O) achieved a record-breaking sale of 179,365,000 USD at Christie's, New York, on May 11, 2015, affirming Picasso's enduring legacy as one of the most influential and valuable artists in history.
