      *Francis Picabia: Materials and Techniques*

      This online publication features twelve richly illustrated essays by an
      international group of conservators and curators and is now
      available for free download here:

      This publication builds on the unique opportunity for technical study
      occasioned by the exhibition *Francis Picabia: Our Heads Are Round so Our
      Thoughts Can Change Direction*, organized by MoMA and the Kunsthaus Zurich
      which brought together over 200 works, and provided an overview of
      Picabia’s unruly genius as manifested over the course of a fifty-plus-year
      career. Each individual object essay is complemented by a wealth of
      technical illustrations, including x-rays, ultraviolet, infrared, and
      raking light images. A selected bibliography is included for readers who
      wish to delve deeper into the technical and historical literature on the
      artist.
