Attempts to demonstrate Picasso’s communist ties through his art are unnecessary since the painter was overt about his politics, writes the Guardian, and doing so limits the scope of his works. “About the politics, so much is known that it seems fanciful to claim that the relevance of Picasso’s communism to his art is little considered…Politics turns out to be the least interesting aspect of Picasso’s art.”
