Author: DIDIER OTTINGER Title: Picasso mania: picasso and the contemporary masters
Description: Hirmer Verlag. Hardback. Pp: 368. Picasso`s work appears never to have ceased to haunt the imagination of his peers. The great stylistic periods and certain emblematic works by Picasso like Les Demoiselles d`Avignon or Guernica will be answered by contemporary artworks. The publication will showcase the rich confrontation with Picasso`s work undertaken by contemporary artists since the 1960s.Pablo Picasso`s vibrant presence struck a chord in the 1960s with the return to Picassien archetypal figures by Pop Art and Narrative Figuration by Warhol, Lichenstein, Equipo Cronica, Err. Martin Kippenberger`s self-portraits reveal the impact of Picasso`s public image on the imagination of 20th century artists. David Hockney`s Polaroid composites and multi-screen videos echo Picasso`s Cubism and his exploration of a polyfocal space. Picasso`s stylistic eclecticism, his "cannibalism" of the old masters, the free craftsmanship of the later paintings inspired a new generation of artists like Georg Baselitz, Jean-Michel Basquiat, or Julian Schnabel. Rineke Dijkstra`s video installation I See a Woman Crying (Weeping Woman), (2009-2010) will demonstratethe presence of Picasso`s work in contemporary imagination, in its most diverse means of expression (cinema, digital images, from videos to comic strips).With works by Francis Bacon, Georg Baselitz, Jean-Michel Basquiat, David Douglas Duncan, Rineke Dijkstra, David Hockney, Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Martin Kippenberger, Jeff Koons, Paul McCarthy, Richard Prince, Sigmar Polke, Julian Schnabel, Andy Warhol.
