About the Item
Picasso and Portraiture: Representation and transformation By Rubin, William, Editor; with essays by Anne Baldassari. by Pablo Picasso, Anne Baldassari, Pierre Daix, Michael C. Fitzgerald, Brigitte Leal, Marilyn McCully, Kirk Varnedoe, Robert Rosenblum, Helene Seckel · Museum of Modern Art · hardback · 0 pages · ISBN 0810961601 The first 100 years of modern art witnessed the popularization of photography and an increasing emphasis on abstraction in painting, which threatened the survival of portraiture as a genre. It continued to flourish, however, because modern painters--Picasso foremost among them--sought and found new ways to portray the human face. The hundreds of works reproduced here illustrate the multiple solutions Picasso invented to solve the problem of the modernist portrait. Illustrations, 230 in color. Picasso and Portraiture, Representation & Transformation, Exhibition Catalog at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in Collaboration with the Musee Picasso, Paris, in April 1996. Edited by William Rubin. The Museum of Modern Art. Harry Abrahams Distributor, New York, 1996. Hardcover with dust jacket. The first 100 years of modern art witnessed the popularization of photography, the decline of traditional patronage, and an increasing emphasis on abstraction in painting, all of which threatened the survival of portraiture as a genre. It continued to flourish because modern painters - Picasso foremost among them - sought and found meaningful new ways to portray the human face. This book focuses on this part of the artist's works, reproducing pictures in oil, gouache, pastel, charcoal and other media to illustrate the solutions Picasso invented to solve the "problem" of the modernist portrait. Published to accompany an exhibition to be shown at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1996, the book contains eight essays examining different periods and aspects of Picasso's career. The personal relationships between Picasso and his subjects are clarified. Large heavy softcover book.
