A final two-page spread presents a timeline capsule biography that lists significant events in the painter's life.

One name in the history of the 20th century art stands out over all others: Pablo Picasso (1881-1973). As painter, graphic artist and sculptor, he displayed an inventive enterprise and innovative bravado that always kept him one step ahead of his contemporaries. As one of them, the painter Max Ernst, ruefully put it: No one can touch Picasso. He is genius incarnate. The works selected here cover Picasso's entire output, from the less familiar to key masterpieces such as Guernica, from the Blue and Rose Periods early in his career through his cubist and classicist phases and the formal experiments of the Thirties to his later involvement with politics in art. Discusses the life and work of the well-known twentieth-century painter, describing how his art was influenced by the events in Spain and his early years there.

As the first public museum in the United States to purchase a painting by Vincent van Gogh, the Detroit Institute of Arts is celebrating its historic accomplishment with a groundbreaking exploration of the introduction and early reception in America of the iconic artist's work. The painting in question is Self-Portrait, produced in Paris during the summer of 1887-with a light palette initially informed by Impressionist works-and acquired by the museum in 1922. To contextualize his work, Van Gogh in America brings together approximately 60 of Van Gogh's paintings, drawings, and prints from collections around the world. Essays by leading Van Gogh scholars from the Van Gogh Museum in the Netherlands and The Metropolitan Museum of Art chronicle the considerable efforts made by early promoters of modernism in the United States, including dealers, collectors, private art organizations, public institutions, and the Van Gogh family, to frame the artist's biography and introduce his artistic production into the American consciousness.

'This man will go insane or leave us all far behind', prophesied the great impressionist Camille Pissarro. The man was Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890), a vicar's son born at Groot-Zundert near Breda in Holland. Van Gogh was a solitary, despairing and self-destructive man and followed a variety of professions before becoming an artist. He craved recognition throughout his life which was denied until after his self-inflicted death. Today he is universally recognised as one of the great forerunners of 20th century painting, and one of the tragic masters of art. This study by the two leading experts - Reiner Metzer and Ingo F. Walther (who previously published the first ever "Complete paintings of Van Gogh") follows the artist from the early gloom-laden paintings in which he captured the misery of peasants and workers in his home province, through the bright and colourful paintings from his period in Paris, to the work of his final years under the southern sun in Arles, where at last he found the light that produced the unmistakable Van Gogh style. Bombarded by influences from every quarter, Van Gogh tried a number of approaches and techniques before leaving Arles in 1888. In search of a new style and in a feverish burst of creative energy that marked the last two and a half years of his life, he produced the 465 paintings on which his immortality rests.
