Description

Written between 1913 and 1929, revolutionary years in art history, ‘Dix Portraits’ conveys the deep human engagement between an artist and her subject. The artist’s book unites Stein’s ten portraits in prose with sketches by five artists: Pablo Picasso, Christian Bérard, Eugene Berman, Pavel Tchelitchew, and Kristians Tonny. Utilizing the interplay between word and image, Stein’s writing and the artists’ images provide nuance and depth, balancing humour and sincerity. With a new introduction by Lynne Tillman, ‘Dix Portraits’ is an unforgettable artistic collaboration.
