Revulsion Freed From A Headlock (after Desire Caught By The Tail)  (English, Paperback, Padgett Anthony)

A part of my artwork "A Year With Picasso" I wrote "Revulsion Freed From A Headlock". This is my response to Pablo Picasso's main surreal play, published in 1945 "Desire Caught By The Tail". As my title suggests, it is an inversion of his work. My methodology in art is to look for what has not been done. And one of the tools I use for this is inversion. For instance, in my paintings I looked at Picasso and Braque's Cubism (with its straight lines and angles) and created my own Curveism. My inversion of script in this play also involves creative choices that are not always a precise inversion. This is to make the text flow more successfully. And I also change some aspects to give them a 21st century relevance.I hope that you will find the result interesting, and in places extraordinary.
