Synopsis

Niobid, Lola Ruiz, Corina Romeu, Señora Soler, Sada Yacco, the three Jeannes, Suzanne Bloch, Alice Derain, Fernande Olivier, Gertrude Stein, Eva Gouel, Fanny Tellier, Gabrielle Depeyre, Irène Lagut, Eugenia Errazuriz, Olga Picasso, Sara Murphy, Marie-Thérèse Walter, Nush Eluard, Lee Miller, Françoise Gilot and Dora Maar. Picasso painted, drew and sculpted each and every one of these women, and many, many more. The female sex was arguably more important and central to Picasso's oeuvre than to any other in the 20th century. Not only was the content of his work inspired by them, his stylistic development weaved in and out of his passionate, tumultuous romantic relationships, his female friendships, and his affairs with women patrons, family members, models, admirers and others of the fairer sex. Picasso et Les Femmes presents all the women through the Picassos they modeled for, photographs from the time, and essays by a wide range of contributors, including Norman Mailer, Ingrid Mössinger, Diana Widmaier-Picasso, Per Kirkeby, Sabine Rewald, Françoise Gilot and Angela Rosengart. But though they are seen here through text and image, recollection and fact, this long list of women remains much as Picasso left them, immortal and a mystery. Edited by Ingrid Mössinger, Beate Ritter and Kerstin Drechsel, ~Essays by Johannes M. Fox, Norman Mailer, Pierre Daix, Amanda Vail and John Richardson.
