| Francis
Picabia is born in Paris, January 22, 1879, 82 rue des Petits
Champs, the same house where he dies, November 30, 1953. During
the seventy‑four intervening years, Picabia explores
most of the artistic movements of his time, a feat as exceptional
as the epoch itself. His childhood is as materially comfortable
as it is emotionally troubled. “Between my head and my hand,”
he says in 1922, “there is always the figure of death.” As
a child, he is l'enfant
terrible, later he becomes the perfect rastaquouère,
the Joker or flashy adventurer, which is the public side of
his complex personality. |
