One of the most exciting and important biographies, because it gets close to the most controversial and brilliant visual artists of the twentieth century.
Pablo Picasso, who changed the shape of modern art forever, considered experimentation a way of life, not just an artistic technique.
But this time, we don't see him from afar as an icon, but from a very close distance... from the barber's chair.
Through the eyes of his close friend, we discover the man behind the legend: the artist who fears old age, is angry at defeat, and cares about the smallest details in his life as much as he cares about the lines of his paintings.
“Picasso’s Barber” is not just a biography, but a reflection on friendship, art, loneliness, and immortality, and a journey into the world of a man who combined genius and isolation, creativity and the fear of oblivion.
A remarkable book that sheds light on previously unseen aspects of the life of the most famous artist in modern history.
