My Galleries and Painters

description

"Picasso's lifelong dealer and one of the major gallery owners of the century, Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler is a key figure in the development of modern art. In 1907, when he opened his first gallery in Paris, Kahnweiler bought the works of Braque, Picasso, Derain, and Vlaminck, then completely unknown; by selling them to his friends, he helped to establish some of the finest collections of cubist paintings in the world. In these conversations with the French journalist Francis Crémieux, Kahnweiler - who describes the interview as "the memoir I may not have time to write" - discusses openly his career and his artist friends. He provides an entertaining account of the environment in which the cubist movement was born and of the climate in which it flourished." -- publisher's statement.

Includes sixteen pages of black-and-white illustrations.
