Product Information

Françoise Gilot's candid memoir remains the most revealing portrait of Picasso written, and gives fascinating insight into the intense and creative life shared by two modern artists. Françoise Gilot was in her early twenties when she met the sixty-one-year-old Pablo Picasso in 1943. Brought up in a well-to-do upper-middle-class family, who had sent her to Cambridge and the Sorbonne and hoped that she would go into law, the young woman defied their wishes and set her sights on being an artist. Her introduction to Picasso led to a friendship, a love affair, and a relationship of ten years, during which Gilot gave birth to Picasso's two children, Paloma and Claude. Gilot was one of Picasso's muses; she was also very much her own woman, determined to make herself into the remarkable painter she did indeed become. Life with Picasso , written with Carlton Lake and published in 1961, is about Picasso the artist and Picasso the man. We hear him talking about painting and sculpture, his life, his career, as well as other artists, both contemporaries and old masters. We glimpse Picasso in his many and volatile moods, dismissing his work, exultant over his work, entertaining his various superstitions, being an anxious father. But Life with Picasso is not only a portrait of a great artist at the height of his fame; it is also a picture of a talented young woman of exacting intelligence at the outset of her own notable career.

Reviews
"[A] completely fascinating volume, one of the most illuminating we have had on the mind and spirit of Picasso." --Irving Stone, Los Angeles Times "[N]ot only a vivid account of her life with [Picasso] but an intimate panorama of life in Paris during and after the German occupation, a Paris populated by Georges Braque, Henri Matisse, Alberto Giacometti, and Gertrude Stein" --Wendy Goodman , New York Magazine "Françoise Gilot's gift of total recall seems scarcely human, but in her account of the ten years she spent with Picasso...everything he said to her about his work rings true even in English." --Robert Melville, New Statesman "Fascinating and brilliant, and crucial to the understanding of Picasso." --John Richardson, author of A Life of Picasso "A valuable interior view of a genius on the hearth." -- The Observer "Although there is much anguish to be found...there are also moments of tenderness and elation, forming what must be one of the most agonizingly honest and one of the most touching accounts of the life of a painter in the history of art." --Jean Boggs, The Art Bulletin "What it is like actually to live with the most publicized artist in history--as chauffeur, secretary, pupil, companion, mother, lover, and ex-lover--is now told for the first time." --Selden Rodman, Saturday Review "The portrait of Picasso that emerges...has a monumentality, a richness and diversity and intensity of being that could have been captured only by a woman of uncommon gifts." --Paul Pickrel, Harper's Magazine "She is a superb witness to Picasso as an artist and to his views on art....Picasso's intentions, his way of working and his fearless invention are brilliantly revealed." --Aline Saarinen, The New York Times Book Review "Astonishing, crowded, intimate...a biographer of true Boswellian blood...a convincing portrait, painted with knowledge that comes only from absolute intimacy, of a fascinating monster, a geyser of energy, a complex character.... We are shown pictures of Malraux, Cocteau, Matisse, Hemingway...Gertrude Stein, Braque, Paul Éluard, Giacometti, Gide, Aragon, Chagall, Leger, Chaplin.... The reader feels that he is in Picasso's studio, and at times even in Picasso's mind." --Clifton Fadiman, Book-of-the-Month Club News "[The]world owes Miss Gilot a tremendous debt, as well as a salute for what can only be described as a sensational ability to report and comprehend." --Emily Genauer, New York Herald Tribune, "[A] completely fascinating volume, one of the most illuminating we have had on the mind and spirit of Picasso." --Irving Stone, Los Angeles Times "Françoise Gilot's gift of total recall seems scarcely human, but in her account of the ten years she spent with Picasso...everything he said to her about his work rings true even in English." --Robert Melville, New Statesman "Fascinating and brilliant, and crucial to the understanding of Picasso." --John Richardson, author of A Life of Picasso "A valuable interior view of a genius on the hearth." -- The Observer "Although there is much anguish to be found...there are also moments of tenderness and elation, forming what must be one of the most agonizingly honest and one of the most touching accounts of the life of a painter in the history of art." --Jean Boggs, The Art Bulletin "What it is like actually to live with the most publicized artist in history--as chauffeur, secretary, pupil, companion, mother, lover, and ex-lover--is now told for the first time." --Selden Rodman, Saturday Review "The portrait of Picasso that emerges...has a monumentality, a richness and diversity and intensity of being that could have been captured only by a woman of uncommon gifts." --Paul Pickrel, Harper's Magazine "She is a superb witness to Picasso as an artist and to his views on art....Picasso's intentions, his way of working and his fearless invention are brilliantly revealed." --Aline Saarinen, The New York Times Book Review "Astonishing, crowded, intimate...a biographer of true Boswellian blood...a convincing portrait, painted with knowledge that comes only from absolute intimacy, of a fascinating monster, a geyser of energy, a complex character....

More telling, though, is what we learn about Gilot, who came from a rich Parisian family and entered Picasso's life with the intensity of a 'little Rimbaud'. She was restless, spirited and determined not to become another of Picasso's 'grains of dust', those women she watched 'floating in the sunlight' all around him, waiting to be pushed out of his life with the swish of a broom." --Lili Owen Rowlands, The London Review of Books "[N]ot only a vivid account of her life with [Picasso] but an intimate panorama of life in Paris during and after the German occupation, a Paris populated by Georges Braque, Henri Matisse, Alberto Giacometti, and Gertrude Stein." --Wendy Goodman , New York Magazine "Françoise Gilot's gift of total recall seems scarcely human, but in her account of the ten years she spent with Picasso . . . everything he said to her about his work rings true even in English." --Robert Melville, New Statesman "Fascinating and brilliant, and crucial to the understanding of Picasso." --John Richardson, author of A Life of Picasso "A valuable interior view of a genius on the hearth." -- The Observer "Although there is much anguish to be found . . . there are also moments of tenderness and elation, forming what must be one of the most agonizingly honest and one of the most touching accounts of the life of a painter in the history of art." --Jean Boggs, The Art Bulletin "What it is like actually to live with the most publicized artist in history--as chauffeur, secretary, pupil, companion, mother, lover, and ex-lover--is now told for the first time." --Selden Rodman, Saturday Review "The portrait of Picasso that emerges . . . has a monumentality, a richness and diversity and intensity of being that could have been captured only by a woman of uncommon gifts." --Paul Pickrel, Harper's Magazine "She is a superb witness to Picasso as an artist and to his views on art. . . .
