Picasso and Photography: The Dark Mirror

Anne Baldassari; Pablo Picasso; Houston Museum of Fine Arts

The extent to which photography influenced the work of Picasso is now considered by scholars to be of great importance in the understanding of Picasso's entire oeuvre. This beautifully illustrated new book, linked to a major exhibition and with an outstanding and authoritative text, presents a unique view into Picasso's relationship with the photographic arts -- the least known area of his work. The photographs which form the nucleus of this book, many of which were donated to the French government from Picasso's personal collection upon his death, bear powerful witness to his versatility and imaginative depth. The artist commanded a wealth of themes, styles, and media over his long career and delighted in extracting unexpected meanings out of forms by combining them in new ways. He explored photography with the same intensity he explored all media, and in his hands it was yet another instrument of unlimited potential for a supremely creative mind. His voracious appetite for experimentation led him to push the media to unorthodox extremes, both stylistically and technically. The works featured in this study -- self-portraits, studio views, found photographs, and graphic designs that he manipulated to create independent works of art -- encapsulate Picasso's ever-deepening command of the medium, examining what could be the last unknown area of his work. Picasso and Photography was the subject of a major exhibition curated by Anne Baldassari which opened in November 1997 at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

Picasso and Portraiture: Representation and Transformation

Anne Baldassari; Robert Rosenblum; Pierre Daix; Kirk Varnedoe; Michael C. Fitzgerald; Marilyn McCully; William Rubin; Helene Seckel; Brigitte Leal; N.Y.) Museum of Modern Art (New York

In Picasso and Portraiture, the hundreds of works reproduced illustrate the multiple solutions Picasso invented to solve the "problem" of the modernist portrait. This book opens with an authoritative essay by William Rubin, Director Emeritus of The Museum of Modern Art's Department of Painting and Sculpture; the eight essays that follow--all by contemporary critics--examine different periods and aspects of Picasso's career and clarify personal relationships between him and his subjects. Numerous outstanding photographs, some never before published and many by outstanding photographers, present the portrait subjects as seen through the eye of the camera.
