The second of an important multi-volume catalogue project, this
publication features work by Francis Picabia (1879-1953) that dates
from 1915 into mid-1927. Beginning with Picabia's elaboration of a
personal machinist aesthetic, the book continues by looking at the
artist's central role in the formulation of the Paris Dada
movement. That irreverent movement included Picabia's increasingly
provocative mechanomorphic compositions, complemented by his
unorthodox writings and graphic designs as well as socially
powerful performances. In the 1920s, Picabia turned to striking
geometrical abstractions, subversive figurative art, and a
collaboration in 1924 with the Swedish Ballet. The volume finishes
with a look at Picabia's creations of the mid-1920s, which included
memorable collages and flamboyant figurative compositions known as
the "monsters." Distributed for Mercatorfonds
