Pablo Picasso's artistic output is astonishing in its ambition and
variety. This handsome publication examines a particular aspect of
his legendary capacity for invention: his imaginative and original
use of paper. He used it as a support for autonomous works,
including etchings, prints and drawings, as well as for his
papier-colle experiments of the 1910s and his revolutionary
three-dimensional 'constructions', made of cardboard, paper and
string. Sometimes, his use of paper was simply determined by
circumstance: in occupied Paris, where art supplies were hard to
come by, he ripped up paper tablecloths to make works of art. And,
of course, his works on paper comprise the preparatory stages of
some of his very greatest paintings, among them Les Demoiselles
d'Avignon (1907) and Guernica (1937). With reproductions of more
than 300 works of art and additional texts by Violette Andres,
Stephen Coppel, Emmanuelle Hincelin, Christopher Lloyd, Johan
Popelard and Claustre Rafart Planas, this sumptuous study reveals
the myriad ways in which Picasso's genius seized the potential of
paper at different stages throughout his career.
