"This volume, edited by Werner Spies, former director of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the most important Picasso expert of our day, examines almost two hundred works - paintings, drawings, prints, and sculptures - shedding light on the special work methods and dialectics in Picasso's late work. The exciting dialogue between painting and drawing, as well as the varying tempi employed by Picasso in Mougins, show that the greatest artist of the twentieth century was engaged in a race against time."--Jacket.
