두상 4 by Julio González

Julio González, a close friend and collaborator of Picasso, was a pioneer in using iron for sculpture, and this sheet shows his creative mind at work. Here, he sketches three variations of a 'Head' (Tête), shattering the human face into sharp, geometric planes typical of the Cubist movement. The central study bursts with blue and yellow hues, suggesting he was testing how light and visual impact might translate to the final metal form. It’s a brilliant peek behind the curtain of a sculptor who literally forged modern art, breaking down reality to rebuild it in steel.
