The Picasso papers

Více o knize

The author addresses questions concerning Picasso's talents and originality and suggests "that modernism itself is a hall of mirrors in which 'counterfeit' and 'genuine' are two sides of the same condition. ... Picasso's pastiche of other artists is brilliantly brought into focus as the 'sublimated' underbelly of Cubism itself, refashioned in the bright, clean style of the master's neo-classicism, a defense that is its own form of practicing the forbidden."--Jacket
