简介

本书是对巴勃罗·毕加索一项鲜为人知的装饰性委托的首次深入考察。1910年，毕加索开始为美国艺术家、收藏家兼评论家汉密尔顿·伊斯特·菲尔德（Hamilton Easter Field）的布鲁克林住宅创作一组十一幅装饰画。尽管这项委托最终未能完成，但它为理解毕加索艺术中一个鲜为人知的篇章提供了新的洞见，而这一时期恰逢立体主义发展的关键节点。基于包括毕加索与菲尔德信件及档案材料在内的新研究，本书展示了这项未实现的委托如何促使毕加索超越架上绘画，将立体主义形式转化为一种沉浸式的审美体验。作者考察了立体主义观念的演进过程，并揭示了毕加索如何将菲尔德的提议用作实验场所，既颠覆又致敬了装饰绘画的传统。本书为配合“庆祝毕加索”（Celebration Picasso）——纪念艺术家逝世五十周年——而出版，为读者呈现了“本可能发生之事”的引人入胜的图景，以及二十世纪初艺术与赞助的迷人肖像。本书为配合2023年9月14日至2024年1月14日在纽约大都会艺术博物馆举办的同名展览出版。

New scholarship on a little-known decorative commission undertaken by Pablo Picasso offers insight into the artist's painting process and the evolution of Cubism. In 1910, Pablo Picasso began a series of 11 decorative paintings intended for the Brooklyn residence of American artist, collector, and critic Hamilton Easter Field. This publication is the first in-depth examination of this commission which, despite never being completed, offers new insights into a little-known chapter in Picasso's art that coincided with a critical moment in the development of Cubism. Based on new research, including letters and archival material from both Picasso and Field, this book shows how the unrealized commission challenged Picasso to move beyond easel painting and adapt Cubist forms to an immersive aesthetic experience. Authors investigate the progression of Cubist ideas and show how Picasso used Easter Field's proposal as a place of experimentation by both subverting and paying homage to decorative painting traditions. Published to coincide with Celebration Picasso, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the artist's death, this compact volume provides a compelling look at what might have been, as well as a fascinating portrait of art and patronage in the early twentieth century
