Life With Picasso ペーパーバック – 1990/11/15
購入オプションとあわせ買い
Francoise Gilot was a young painter in Pasis when she first met Picasso - he was sixty-two and she was twenty-one. During the following ten years they were lovers, worked closely together and she became mother to two of his children, Claude and Paloma.
Life with Picasso, her account of those extraordinary years, is filled with intimate and astonishing revelations about the man, his work, his thoughts and his friends - Matisse, Braque, Gertrude Stein and Giacometti among others. Francois Gilot paints a compelling portrait of her turbulent life with the temperamental genius that was Picasso.
She is a superb witness to Picasso as an artist and to his views on art.

... no-one in the Picasso entourage was so close to him... fascinating. ― Tim Hilton

Luckily, she smartened-up after almost ten damaging years and saved herself. She realized she had fallen into the trap of believing her love was so unique and strong that she could tame Picasso to love her as he had loved no other woman.
You don't have to be an art connoisseur to enjoy this easy to read book about living with Picasso. I am just an average person who is interested in art and artists and wish I had some artistic talent. I don't know much, but I loved this book.
Françoise Gilot was a strong-willed and ambitious 21-year old art student when she met Pablo Picasso at a Paris restaurant in 1943. Ten years and two illegitimate children later, she grew tired of being his doormat, stepped out of his shadow, and began a new life on her own terms. This is Gilot’s first-hand account of their time together. It’s no homage. Instead, it shines a bright unforgiving light in to the darkest corners of their often one-sided relationship. If revenge is a dish best served cold, then this feast is straight from the deep freeze.
We meet Picasso’s former lovers and his neurotic first wife whom he never divorced. We learn a little about his relationships with his children and his friends and peers including Gertrude Stein, Henri Matisse, Paul Eluard, and Georges Braque. We go on a tour of his studios and homes past and present and visit the Harry Potter-like vaults where he stored his personal collection of favourite pieces. We even get to wrestle with many of his often long semi-philosophical monologues on a wide range of subjects that Gilot recalls in great detail.
But, however interesting these unique views into Picasso’s fiercly guarded privatel life might be, Gilot’s apparently privileged position is hard earned and she provides numerous examples of his controlling, manipulative, and self-indulgent behaviour. As their relationship progressed, I found his callous disregard for her feelings and welfare increasingly difficult to reconcile with Gilot’s unwavering devotion and commitment.
Despite Picasso’s near total focus on his own needs and interests, Gilot generously claims she saw a deeply emotional creative genius plagued with suspicion and self-doubt who was aware of his own mortality. However, this is at odds with how she portrays him here, which is as an emotionally naive individual suffering from an exaggerated sense of power and entitlement.
There are many instances of how he enjoyed pushing boundaries and testing friendships to breaking point, often by making those closest to him look ridiculous or feel inadequate. Eventually, his preference for circus over stability combined with his suffocating demand for attention proved too much for Gilot and she became the first of Picasso’s muses to leave him on her terms.
Life With Picasso is a fascinating study for those interested in the human condition. It’s as much testament to the strength and determination that turned Gilot in to a highly respected artist in her own right as it is an insight in to what it’s like to live with arguably the most influential artist of the 20th Century.
Sadly Françoise Gilot died in June 2023 and there are now several new biographies about her life but this is surely their main source of content. Admitedly, the paperback version is quite a challenging read with its large blocks of unbroken text, poor quality black and white images, and an increasingly anecdotal style as the final third of the story begins to lose focus. However, it’s worth persevering if you want to discover the real man (and woman) behind their respective canvases.
