Description:
|
|
This assemblage was created in Paris, using sheet metal cut and folded, a tin box and iron wire, painted in a black and white scheme. Picasso created a first version of Guitar from cardboard in 1912, then later remade the work in sheet metal in 1914; the modern ordinariness of both of these materials is very different from traditional sculptural materials such as bronze, wood, and marble. To create the Guitar series, Picasso made a radical leap from the sculptural tradition of modeling (carving or molding) to a new technique of assemblage. This work from 1924 adds a more painterly approach, giving the work a textural background. (Source: MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) [website]; http://www.moma.org/ )
