Typography printed by the Sociedad Alianza de Artes Graficas (S.A.D.A.G.), Rosellon, 298-300, Barcelona. About the Publication: Grabados al linoleo (Linocuts), published in 1962 by Gustavo Gili, S.A., Barcelona, and Editions Cercle d'Art, Paris, stands as one of the most celebrated printed albums devoted to Picassos linoleum engravings. Supervised and printed by Verlag Gerd Hatje, Stuttgart, the album documents Picassos innovative mastery of the linocut technique—an approach he developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s while working closely with the printer Hidalgo Arnera in Vallauris. These works, created between 1958 and 1961, demonstrate Picassos ability to synthesize color, form, and movement within a single, reductive process that demanded precision and intuition. The album was issued in a limited numbered edition of DXX examples, accompanied by the publisher’s acknowledgment of Galerie Louise Leiris for facilitating access to the original blocks. As a historical publication, Grabados al linoleo reflects Picassos late-career vitality and his relentless experimentation with materials and printmaking methods, offering collectors and scholars an enduring testament to his inventive genius in graphic art. 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, Picassos 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 Picassos enduring legacy as one of the most influential and valuable artists in history.
