An Artful Life

Assouline, Pierre

Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, art dealer extraordinaire, and Picasso's ambassador to the outside world, championed avant-garde cubist artists before they were in fashion.
This first full-length biography examines his relationships with the artists he fostered, his struggle against political forces that led to exile and being stripped of his art holdings – setbacks he overcame to remain the most uncompromising art dealer of his day.
