Mass culture, popular taste, and kitsch-previously considered outside the limits of fine art-were the inspiration for and provocative themes of Pop Art, a movement that enjoyed great prominence in the late 1950s and 1960s. Rejecting the idea that art and life should be separated, artists in both the United States and Britain-among them Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, Andy Warhol, Peter Blake, and Richard Hamilton-used mass-produced objects and photographic images to make a blatant connection between art and the postwar world of consumerism.

In the history of 20th-century art, Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) stands alone. His enormous output of paintings, drawings, lithographs, ceramics, and sculptures is one of the most diverse and creatively energetic ever produced. A relentless innovator, his aesthetic bravado kept him one step ahead of his contemporaries. With almost 1500 illustrations, this exhaustive study reviews Picasso's entire oeuvre, from the early Blue and Rose Periods, through the cubist, classicist, and political phases, and finally to the late work of the artist, still vital and productive in his nineties.
