Présentation de l'éditeur
In his linocuts, Pablo Picasso combined his talent as a draftsman with his use of abundant colours. This printing technique appealed immensely to the Spanish artist because it enabled him to create graphics which equalled his paintings in terms of their striking contrasts of colour. In the 1950s Picasso became very involved with the linocut. His enthusiastic use of the medium provoked a renaissance in its use, which had declined in the early 1900s. This publication came about as a result of an exhibition conceived by the Kunstmuseum Pablo Picasso in Münster. In addition to describing Picasso s unconventional handling of this printing technique, this book also recounts the history of the linocut and the circumstances in which the artist created his works. This volume contains around 100 illustrations depicting bull fighting scenes, mythological scenes and portraits. Countless artist s proofs and trial proofs attest to Picasso s experimental approach to the medium of the linocut, often reworking the original piece between colours. Above all these works, created between 1954 and 1968, document the mature work of this Spanish artist. Interestingly, at the same time the works convey the almost youthful buoyancy of an artist of over 70 who once more became an apprentice of a technique that was new to him.

Hardcover. Etat : New. Beginning in the 1950s, Pablo Picasso concerned himself intensely with the linocut, creating a veritable cosmos of bullfighting scenes, mythological images, and abstract portraits. Neglected for many years, this traditional printmaking techniqueâ"which effectively combined his talent as a draftsman with his expressive use of colorâ"was consequently to experience a renaissance. On par with his paintings in their coloristic effects, Picassoâs linocuts convey both the mature tone of the late Picasso and the almost youthful buoyancy of an artist of over seventy years who once more found himself the eager apprentice of a new technique. And with his experimental approach to the new mediumâ"as shown by countless artistâs and trial proofs, many of which are included hereâ"Picasso helped to establish the linocut in the modern-day art world as a professional printmaking technique. In addition to exploring Picassoâs unconventional handling of the linocut, this volumeâ"created to accompany an exhibition this year at the Kunstmuseum Pablo Picasso in Münsterâ"also recounts the history of the linocut and the biographical circumstances under which Picasso created his works. Included in this lavish volume are more than one hundred illustrations of the vibrant prints Picasso created between 1954 and 1968. Many are among the artist's most defining work and demonstrate his lifelong ability to engage with virtually any medium and to make it his own. N° de réf. du vendeur 95805
