"Dora Maar born Henriette Theodora Markovitch in 1907 was a talented artist in her own right. While studying painting she soon found a passion and gift for photography and became a prominent member of the Surrealist movement. This catalogue traces her relationship with Picasso from the time of their first meeting in late 1935 through 1937. Picasso expert Anne Baldassari demonstrates how those years were critical for both artists and how their interaction provided mutual inspiration through the mid-1940s. The relationship is set within the context of major historical events from the Spanish Civil War and the Popular Front to the rise of fascism and World War II. This chronological account brings a legend to life allowing the reader unique access to two artistic minds. Maar s photographs alongside Picasso's drawings paintings and poems serve as a guide through the critical period in which these two figures influenced one another. Preserved in her studio archives Maar's negatives and contact prints allow us to analyze in detail the intimacy of the life she shared with Picasso in all of its states as well as the evolution of his art including the colossal Guernica. This exquisite volume features . . . personal mementos--including notes scrawled on matchboxes and small sketches which are produced on onion skin paper throughout. This book sheds light on the profound mark left upon Picasso and his work by their dynamic relationship." - Publisher.
