Description
Dora Maar más allá de Picasso by Victoria Combalía is a biography that delves into the life and work of the enigmatic Dora Maar, who was both the lover of Pablo Picasso and a talented artist in her own right. Maar's story is one of transformation and reinvention, from her childhood as the daughter of a Yugoslav father and French mother to her adoption of an activist lifestyle and her involvement with the Surrealist movement. Her relationship with Picasso was marked by both passion and turmoil, but it also had a profound impact on her art. This book offers a unique insight into Maar's life and work, drawing on Victoria Combalía's conversations with the artist in 1994 and her role in organizing the first retrospective of Maar's photography and painting in 1995.
