About the author

Francis Picabia (born François Marie Martínez Picabia) was a French avant-garde painter, poet and typographist. After experimenting with Impressionism and Pointillism, Picabia became associated with Cubism. His highly abstract planar compositions were colourful and rich in contrasts. He was one of the early major figures of the Dada movement in France and in the United States. He was later briefly associated with Surrealism, but would soon turn his back on the art establishment.

Hanuman was a fantastic publishing house that focused on New York writers as well as Euopean greats. I imagine to get the entire series would be expensive, since they are out of print.

One of the jewels of the series is Yes No by the painter/artist Francis Picabia. He was a poet, would you know it? Great little pieces to get you going.
