Illustrated profusely with over 1100 photographs, mostly of Picabia's art. 28.7x24.5 cm (11¼x9½"), white cloth, lettering in black. First Edition. Lacking dust jacket. A beautiful and thorough study of the art of Francis Picabia a French avant-garde painter, poet and typographer. After experimenting with Impressionism and Pointillism, Picabia became associated with Cubism. His highly abstract planar compositions were colorful and rich in contrasts. He was one of the early major figures of the Dada movement in the United States and in France. He was later briefly associated with Surrealism, but would soon turn his back on the art establishment.
