Was Pablo Picasso a modern Midas, who not only turned the trash of everyday life into the gold of cubist collage but, touching all of old-master art, gave it fabulous new value? Or was he a monster counterfeiter who mercilessly raided the styles of others? Arguing that counterfeit and genuine are not opposites but, instead, two sides of the same condition, Krauss brilliantly brings Picasso's work into focus as the "sublimated" underbelly of cubism itself. |
