Beschreibung:
Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), spanischer Maler, Grafiker und Bildhauer, war Wegbereiter und einer der wichtigsten Repräsentanten der modernen Malerei des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts. Er siedelte 1904 nach Paris um, und nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zog er sich nach Südfrankreich zurück.
The Museum Berggruen in Berlin owns one of the world's most important collections of Modern art. Works by three great artists form the nucleus of the museum: Pablo Picasso, Paul Klee and Henri Matisse. Also in the collection are outstanding works by their contemporaries Alberto Giacometti, Henri Laurens, Georges Braque as well as Paul Cézanne.
With more than 350 illustrations, this compelling book offers a broad and unique panorama of "Picasso and his Time." All paintings, drawings and sculptures of the collection are introduced in large-format illustrations, accompanied by thoroughly researched texts, for the first time presenting works of art that were made available to the public after the museum's extension.
