Francis Picabia : Catalogue Raisonné Vol. Iii : 1927-1939

This publication is the third of four volumes in the catalogue raisonné of Francis Picabia (1879-1953), one of the most significant, challenging artists of the 20th century.

This volume is devoted to works from mid-1927 to 1939, period that gave way to new artistic directions, from the "transparencies" of the late 1920s to photo-based figural paintings foreshadowing his famous painted nudes of the early 1940s.

Each work listed in this catalogue raisonné is illustrated and accompanied by detailed information, chronology and a complete list of exhibitions and publications devoted to the artist.
