Among the many phases and styles found in his oeuvre, his late period has a special position. His late paintings, featuring close-ups of the kiss and copulation, cling with all their might to sensuality and the embrace; they are marked by a great restlessness whose aim is to exorcise death itself. The “wild” paintings rapidly executed by his masterly hand are contrasts to his detailed, carefully executed drawings, which are dominated by a unique joy in narrative.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; BACKGROUND: white\"\u003eThis volume, edited by Werner Spies, former director of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the most important Picasso expert of our day, examines almost two hundred works—paintings, drawings, prints, and sculptures—shedding light on the special work methods and dialectics in Picasso’s later work. In particular, the exciting dialogue between painting and drawing, developed during his years in Mougins, shows that the greatest artist of the twentieth century was engaged in a race against time. \u003cFONT size=3 face=TheSans-Plain\u003e(English\u0026nbsp;edition ISBN 978-3-7757-1922-3) \u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874911219976,"sku":"9783775718318","price":49.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775718318_54ebc7f8-1f48-4e1f-b8cb-5c60916a9f11.jpg?v=1744126367","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15618-picasso","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
