Album Picabia is an inspiring, artistic chronicle of Francis Picabia’s life (1879-1953) as seen through the eyes of his last wife and compassionate protégé, Olga Mohler-Picabia.
Begun in 1936, four years before their marriage, and left unfinished in 1951, two years before Picabia’s death, the album is a collection of souvenirs, sketches, press clippings, photographs, and annotations that document the artist’s public and private lives with acute affection and appreciation. This rich visual account provides entry into one of the greatest, yet least known, creative and romantic partnerships of the twentieth century.
