Ambiguous work. Where can we start?, wrote the art historian Oscar Schürer in the historic series Junge Kunst" about Pablo Picassos multi-faceted oeuvre back in 1927. Picasso, who was investigating Surrealism at the time, was regarded as a genius even then and had another 40 years of creativity before him. The magnificent legacy of a talent which showed twentieth-century art the way forward consists of an almost unimaginable number of paintings, drawings, graphic works, sculptures and ceramic items. " The art historian Markus Müller knows where and above all how we can begin to grasp a multilayered oeuvre like Picassos. In this newly edited artist monograph he skilfully guides the reader through the virtuoso plethora of styles of Pablo Picasso, explains key works from the various periods and provides a fascinating impression of the bubbling energy of this multi-talented artist. Not least as a result of the authors personal acquaintance with the Picasso family, the archive section of the work promises a number of finds which are seldom on view.

Markus Müller ist seit 2000 Leiter des Kunstmuseums Pablo Picasso Münster und Honorarprofessor für Kunstgeschichte an der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität Münster.
