Here are the words and art of Pablo Picasso, presented in a manner that reflects the powerful directness of his personality and actions throughout his long life. Picasso's ability to shred veils of accepted belief and expose aspects of the truth is the single most compelling feature of his art. The words he spoke, as recorded by his friends and colleagues, are no less astounding. They reveal Picasso as a man who reveled in passion and sought, at all times, to embrace the challenge of life.
