Juan Gris

Juan Gris was one of the world's foremost Cubist artists, and his career as a painter, from 1910 to 1927, correlates exactly with the years of Cubism's greatest notoriety. This illustrated book - the first full-scale study of Gris to appear in English in 45 years - offers the closest scrutiny yet of the artist's work, reexamining both Gris and Cubism as elements in the changing culture of the France of the Third Republic.
