A Life of Picasso, Volume II: 1907-1917 - The Painter of Modern Life by John Richardson
English | ISBN: 0394559185 | 500 pages | PDF | 13 Mb

For Picasso, art would always have a magic function. As Richardson reveals, the artist saw himself as a shaman who could use his art to cast spells, both good and bad, and play all manner of ingenious and sardonic games. This greatest of modern artists knew better than anyone how to outrage us, also how to fascinate, puzzle and disturb us. Above all, he makes us perceive reality afresh by re-energizing our minds as well as our eyes.
