Overview
'Picasso: The Great War, Experimentation, and Change' examines the work that Pablo Picasso made in Paris during the tumultuous years of World War I. Focusing on Picasso's oeuvre from 1912 to 1924, when he utilised both Cubist and classical modes in his art, this fully illustrated catalogue highlights one of the most important periods in the history of modern art. Picasso's shifts in style became a means of not repeating, in his words, 'the same vision, the same technique, the same formula.' With that approach in mind, the book also includes the work of Picasso's peers and friends, artists who were also exploring themes relevant to the difficult times in which they lived. Published to accompany a major exhibition of the same name at the Barnes Foundation and the Columbus Museum of Art, this elegantly designed book is essential reading for all those interested in Picasso's work and the dramatic and innovative period of art history during the Great War. CONTRIBUTORS: Simonetta Fraquelli is an independent art historian and specialist in twentieth-century European art. She has curated numerous exhibitions, including Modigliani and his Models (Royal Academy of Arts, London, 2006), Chagall: Modern Master (Tate Liverpool, 2013), and Joan Miro: Wall, Frieze, Mural (Kunsthaus Zurich, 2015). Elizabeth Cowling is Professor Emeritus of History of Art and Honorary Fellow at Edinburgh University. Kenneth Silver is Professor of Art History and Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Institute of French Studies at New York University. Dominique H. Vasseur is the former Chief Curator and Curator of European Art at the Columbus Museum of Art, a position he held until his retirement in 2015. Ann Bremner is an arts writer and editor based in Columbus, Ohio. She earned BA and MA degrees in history of art from The Ohio State University.
