I don't know it.\" With this provocative tone, Picasso tried to deny his relationship with art from outside of Europe. However, through hundreds of archival documents and photographs, this volume illustrates how tribal art from Africa, Oceania, the Americas, and Asia was a recurring source of inspiration for the artist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Side-by-side comparisons illustrate the links between Picasso's oeuvre and diverse tribal arts. In both, we find the same themes--nudity, sexuality, impulses, death, and more--along with parallel artistic expressions of those themes--such as disfiguration or destruction of the body. The volume is completed with a chronology of the relevant works and photographs of the artist in his studio.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yves Le Fur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2080203193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782080203199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Flammarion-Pere Castor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.90h x 9.90w x 1.40d","brand":"Yves Le Fur","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983444738303,"sku":"9782080203199","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c5c222d6-2f38-46d5-825a-4fffa73e256b.jpg?v=1683266684","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/through-the-eyes-of-picasso-yves-le-fur-9782080203199","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
