Utterly charming. Conveys seemingly effortlessly what it means to make art and how many ways there are of making it. Hardcover I am so appreciative of this interesting story that provides a child's perspective of the personality of the famed artist, Picasso while also highlighting the artwork. Images of Picasso's portraits and pieces are intertwined with photos and stories from the author's childhood visits with Picasso. My kids are not interested in art books -but they do stay engaged and interested while we read this. The questions the author poses, gently encourages them to look at the art with a different perspective. 48 My name is Tony. When I was a little boy, living on a farm in Sussex in England, I had the most extraordinary friend. He had deep black eyes, a big wide smile, and absolutely amazing hands. His hands were absolutely amazing because he could make paintings and drawings and sculptures and collages and pots and plates and much much more.

Antony Penrose begins his story, The Boy Who Bit Picasso.

The boy in the story is the author himself and the extraordinary friend is Pablo Picasso. The son of Lee Miller, photographer, and Roland Penrose, surrealist painter and writer, Tony had the chance to grow up in a house where artists like Joan Miró, Max Ernst and Pablo Picasso used to gather. The relation of the young boy with the Spanish artist was a success from the very beginning. Picasso loved children and animals. He even demonstrated a childish behavior from time to time so when the boy, out of excitement, bit Picasso’s arm one day, the artist bit back without hesitation, saying in French: “Gosh! That’s the first Englishman I’ve ever bitten!”

The book is a visual delight. Filled with Picasso’s drawings and paintings and with photographs taken by Tony’s mother, The Boy Who Bit Picasso is a fascinating memoir that introduces readers to Picasso’s unusual and unlimited artistic universe.

I couldn’t speak French or Spanish, but it didn’t matter at all because we didn’t need a language for our games. Picasso was great fun to play with. He liked to romp around on the floor and have pretend bullfights. His tweed jacket was nice and scratchy. He smelled good, too. He smelled of cologne and French tobacco.

https://fromwordstoworlds.wordpress.c... The Boy Who Bit Picasso A kölkök nem tudták, ki Picasso, úgy nem tudom, mennyire volt érdekes, bár a harapás meg a rumli tetszett nagyon a kilencévesnek. A festményekre azt mondták, de csúnyán rajzolt. Az ágyba sz.ró galambok mondjuk csúnyán kiverték a biztosítékot mindannyiunknál, azt hiszem. Nálam tuti, nem lettem volna a lakótársa.

Viszont állati jópofa lehetett Picasso gyerekbarátjának lenni. És nagyon jó bevezetés ez a kölköknek a képzÅ'művészetbe, ahogy egy kisgyerek lazán, természetesen mesél az egyik leghíresebb alkotóról, akivel nagyon jókat lehetett játszani. Még ha vissza is harapott. The Boy Who Bit Picasso Great book. A good start to know the Famous artist ever. Art is everywhere you just need to open your eyes and see the beauty of it.
Art is made with the simplest things, You have to be a genius to make it real and realistic. 9780810997288
