ANTONIO PESSOA

. Picasso painting Dora Maar .

Being Antonio Pessoa's New Era obviously a result or a conclusion ,more accurately,of his past life and work it's only natural my systematic research carefully setting his life and work upon an analytical balance providing us with a clear vision of what really happened in the mind and soul of an artist,unpredictable as he is,just apparently.
Picasso painting Dora Maar collection is just an example of how Antonio Pessoa periodically,in his reliable,conscious,although unpredictable manner,sporadically shows himself up more rather as a story teller-movie director than simply as a painter.
The relationship between Pablo Picasso and Dora Maar is world wide known.Although a lot of mystery clouds still remain about this strange love affair,it's common knowledge that there has been some serious perversion and contradictory mixed up feelings.Antonio Pessoa takes this subject to the canvas in the year 2000 and later in Barcelona,2004,the artist gives it a second version,coming up with a collection of more than fifty mixed media art works pieces.
Picasso painting Dora Maar by Antonio Pessoa,provides us with some substantial information of how chaotic and how driven by basic instincts this relationship has been.Here,specifically,Antonio Pessoa plays with humour and drama at the same time using on purpose rather shocking colors,probably eager to make sure the lurid details of this love affair had enough explicit definitions in order to turn the first visual impact into an easy understanding digestion.
Any viewer might eventually become slightly bewildered by this collection,nevertheless,definitely a Must in Antonio Pessoa's life and work.
