Picasso / Apollinaire - Correspondence
GK192476
FRENCH LANGUAGE
Editing by Pierre Caizergues and Hélène Seckel
The dialogue between poetry and painting appears to be one of the most characteristic paths of modern art. And this dialogue of forms is often accompanied by a dialogue of the artists themselves who, in the words of Blaise Cendrars, lived "mixed, probably with the same concerns", at least in pre-First World War Paris.
The publication of the correspondence between Picasso and Apollinaire now makes it possible to follow, so to speak, live, between 1905 and 1918, the dialogue of a friendship that was always demanding, often complicit, but also sometimes hurt, between the two artists.
