A revealing investigation into Picasso's career-long fascination
with the written word Throughout his life, Pablo Picasso had close
friendships with writers and an abiding interest in the written
word. This groundbreaking book, which draws on the collections of
Yale University, traces the relationship that Picasso had with
literature and writing in his life and work. Beginning with the
artist's early associations with such writers as Gertrude Stein,
Guillaume Apollinaire, Max Jacob, and Pierre Reverdy, the book
continues until the postwar period, by which time Picasso had
become a worldwide celebrity. Distinguished authorities in art and
literature explore the theme of Picasso and language from
historical, linguistic, and visual perspectives and contextualize
Picasso's work within a rich literary framework. Presenting
fascinating archival materials and written in an accessible style,
Picasso and the Allure of Language is essential reading for anyone
interested in this great artist and the history of modernism.
