Abstract (en)

Discusses Apollinaire's descriptive art criticism of early Picasso works, in which traditional ekphrasis was used to analyze paintings from the Blue and Rose periods. Shows how ekphrasis did not offer a suitable approach to writing about Picasso's Cubist pictures, in particular his collages, and how Apollinaire developed concrete poetry-criticism to solve this problem.
