Summary |
In gathering this special selection from the unique collection of the Picasso Museum in Paris, Baer had in mind the basic questions of why Picasso was attracted to the art of printmaking; and what role it played in his work, his life and his fantasies. She invites the viewer to look attentively at the prints themselves as she analyzes their themes, sources, iconography and techniques. Based on impeccable scholarship and the invaluable experience gained from personally handling these works of art for many years, Baer's documentation of this key aspect of Picasso's work provides a fresh evaluation of his genius |
