Abstract

The paper examines the relationship between Picasso’s pictorial style and the text of his two plays Desire Caught by the Tail and The Four Little Girls. The analysis of the plot consisting of heterogeneous segments, the improbable and rather strange characters, as well as the study of the discourse texture, lead to the conclusion that the distorted vision of the world and the use of formalistic Cubo-Surrealist principles (burlesque, fragmentariness, illogicality) account for the similarities between Picasso’s paintings and theatrical works. The important role of the pictures in the semantics of the plays allots them an intermediary place between pictorial techniques and literary writing.Keywords: Pablo Picasso; painting; dramatic text; pictorial techniques; Cubo-Surrealist principles; dramatic structure; dialogic discourse; stage directions
