Cubist Picasso

by Anne Baldassari, Irving Lavin (Contributor), Leo Steinberg (Contributor)

To celebrate the one-hundredth anniversary of Picasso’s seminal work Les Demoiselles d’Avigon, leading Picasso scholars and art historians assess its legacy and the extraordinary influence of Picasso’s Cubism on the development of twentieth-century art.

pretty rigorous examination of "cubist picasso", whom I've often struggled to grok. great design and reproductions. the physical shape and texture of the book is kinda nice too. you know, if you're into that.
