PABLO PICASSO: On the Path to Sculpture
Spies, Werner. PABLO PICASSO: On the Path to Sculpture. The Paris and Dinard Sketchbooks of 1928 from the Marina Picasso Collection. 165 pp., 206 illustrations. 4to, cloth. New York, Prestel, 1995.
These "graphic diaries" provide a precise record of the artist's ideas during the second half of 1928, and document one of the most important turning-points in Picasso's style: the resurgence of his interest in abstraction and the decontruction of form that followed the neo-classicism of the work done earlier in the 1920s. Introduced by Picasso scholar Werner Speis, this volume reproduces the Paris Sketchbook complete and 62 sheets from the Dinard Sketchbook.
