If Picasso inhabits a singular place at the centre of our artistic landscape, it is because his work, so diverse in both subject and form, is anchored at its core to the question of the human condition. He has become a powerful beacon which demands our attention, shining light on the obscurity of contemporary life […] – Charles Feld (Charles Feld & René Char, Picasso, Dessins 27.3.66-15.3.68, Paris, 1969, p. 15, translated from the French)
