Art in Hand series
An emotional crisis in 1935 caused Pablo Picasso to temporarily halt all painting and devote himself to writing. This collection has been culled from the startling twenty-four year stream of prose poetry that resulted. Reading like a hallucinatory journal, it provides a seismeographic slice of an unknown Picasso, a visceral stew of sensory pleasure and madness that matches his visual work.
