My Father, Picasso, And Me: An Artist's Journey of Resilience

Marsha Glazière

4.9/5 (20617 ratings)

Description:Very few female visual artists have written about themselves. Plenty of writers, musicians, singers, and dancers—for sure. Perhaps visual artists have been too busy painting or stretching canvases, marketing their work on social media, or knocking on gallery doors trying to get exposure. Maybe they assume that their work is their truest autobiography. Historically, the work of female visual artists can be found in anthologies but rarely in art history books. For the most part, the personal stories and the art of women artists who, for centuries, have met with resistance from the male-dominated art establishment remain obscure with very few exceptions.MARSHA GLAZIÈRE—Painter/Sculptor/Author—presents a memoir, art book, and tribute that stands out in its rarity. It is a testament to her upbringing, shaped by her brilliant, complex, and domineering father. Her narrative revisits her life's odyssey, marked by challenges, some imposed by her father but most related to developing her own artistic voice and unique perspective. Her journey has been a mix of triumphs, missteps, and unexpected turns, all of which have molded her into the artist she is today.As an adolescent, Glazière became aware of just how important Pablo Picasso was to her father. It’s not that he respected or even liked the man or his work but that he held the artist personally responsible for the decline of traditional art defined by realism, which led to Modern Art, a movement characterized by abstraction and a more experimental approach. When she was twelve, her father introduced her to his theory that Picasso was a fraud, appropriating the style and images of other artists as his own. Glazière wasn’t particularly interested, but regardless, she found herself involved in what seemed like an archaeological dig. Her father hoped that his detective work would eventually turn into a book and recruited his artistically inclined daughterto do the paste-up of the illustrations for this master plan. The entire experience of being so close to her father’sproject probably set the stage for the author to begin sorting out her own artistic preferences and, ultimately, distinctive direction.“Being an artist has meant finding my own voice—reaching deep into myself to discover what or who might inspire me and taking that plunge.” —Marsha GlazièreWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
