Pablo
by Clement Oubrerie & Julie Birmant
Picasso’s Head of a Woman at Tate Modern, a raw portrait of his lover Fernande Olivier, seems infused with their passionate relationship. Here was another goddess and early inspiration. For the graphically inclined, Pablo – from SelfMadeHero’s brilliant Art Masters series – is a mammoth graphic novel which beautifully recounts Picasso’s early years as told by Olivier, who as a model shared his Montmartre garret in the years before Cubism.
