Picasso's Victims

Can you name some of Picasso's artwork? How about the names of some of his victims? From his first muse until the last, Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was intent on claiming ownership of each woman in his life. He packaged these individuals, and the intimate relationships he had with them, as a saleable product to make him profit. Their bodies, minds, suggestions, appear again and again in his work. Picasso’s preference for young women was so well-known it was a punchline in the Orson Welles' movie "F for Fake". But portraiture is a two-way process; the results reveal both model and artist. Picasso’s expose a man obsessed with presenting himself as an all-powerful creator; but, if we look again, we might see that he is nothing compared to his muses.

Fascinating. I collect art images on Pinterest. My Picasso board is organized by his subjects. My heart goes out to the amazing women who made him.
