• Writing cubism / Brigitte Leal -- "It's geometry in spasm!" Cubism and the press (1908-1919) / Ariane Coulondre -- The first retrospective exhibitions of cubism (1925-1970) / Christian Briend -- Cubism and colour / Eva Reifert -- Cubism and cubisms / David Cottington -- Cubism and abstraction / Pepe Karmel -- Picasso, Braque and Duchamp : Painting in movement / Olivier Berggruen -- Chronology 1907-1919. 

• When Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque pioneered Cubism in the early years of the twentieth century, they set off a revolution in visual art. The new style's fragmented forms signal a fundamental change in how painting relates to the visible world. The Cubists rank as one of the most influential movements in art history; their works are adventures for the eyes even today, challenging our habits of perception. Produced in cooperation with the Centre Pompidou, the exhibition The Cubist Cosmos. From Picasso to Léger is the first to unite both museums' Cubist masterworks for a reconstruction of the wider context in which the world-famous treasures bequeathed to the Kunstmuseum Basel by Raoul La Roche were created. Rounded out by masterpieces on loan from international collections, the presentation showcases ca. 130 works to illuminate this seminal chapter in the history of art. Exhibition: Kunstmuseum Basel, Switzerland (30.03. - 04.08.2019). 
• "'The Cubist Cosmos' traces the development of Cubsm between 1907 and 1917. The publciation reveals the boundless innovative power of the works of Pablo Picasso and Geoprges Braque. it also shows how the Cubist pictorial language was received and advanced by the artists of the Parisian avant-garde--such as Fernand Léger and Sonia Delaunay--and how it evolved into the colourful large-format pictures. The volume reflects not only the enormous range of this stylistic direction but also its revolutionary potential, which went on to influence the further development of twentieth-century art."
