Picasso pursued drawing assiduously throughout his career, ranging across media such as pen and pencil, charcoal, and <i>papier collé</i>. This book brings together eighty extraordinary drawings spanning the most important phases of Picasso's career. Contributors discuss the artist's intensive exploration of line in relation to three-dimensional form, both in the context of the European artistic tradition and in analyses of selected works. Drawing emerges as central to the artist's process--a creative process that reveals another facet of Picasso's genius for making art out of the simplest of means. <p/> The first in-depth exploration of the artist's line drawings, <i>Picasso The Line</i> conveys how essential these powerful works are within the artist's oeuvre. As Picasso himself stated: "line drawings are the only ones that cannot be imitated."<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Carmen Giménez</b> is founder and former director of the Museo Picasso Málaga, Spain. She currently lives in Madrid. <b>David Breslin</b> and <b>Clare Elliott</b> are curators at The Menil Collection.
