How are you doing?
I'm doing very well.
It's wonderful to be here and lovely to meet you.
Well, I had gone, I don't know the beginning, the beginning, but I went to graduate school at Columbia University in New York City and Picasso, of course.
was at the Museum of Modern Art there and was a beacon, basically, for so many people.
And some of the best-known art historians have addressed his work, Leo Steinberg and others, and I was well familiar with them.
And he's always been fascinating and always complex, and both he and his works
make a point to always transcend and complicate anything one wants to address with respect to those works or with respect to the artist, an incredibly brilliant and transformative and
Yeah, an enormous big deal.
And I think to some extent, his brilliance and
innovations in the history of art have shielded us from some of his other extraordinary aspects of his life.
Here, we're going to be talking about sex and related considerations, but he was brilliant financially, economically.
I mean, he was able to create a milieu in which even during the
you know, the First and Second World Wars.
He was in Paris and was able to really transcend a very difficult market.
And to this day, his works have benefited from what he put in place, basically, even at that early period.
Even a print.
Absolutely.
And I think the other thing that is important about him, he benefited enormously from the friendships he had with both men and women.
And they really were a central part of his earth.
