Head of a Woman is one of a group of folded sheet-metal sculptures Picasso made in the 1950s and 1960s. In the sheet-metal sculptures, Picasso used intersecting, planar surfaces to generate works that confounded expectations of the continuous three-dimensional contours typical of much modern sculpture. Works such as Head of a Woman (Tête de femme) present not so much multiple views of the same subject as specific, sharply delineated glimpses of individual, recognizable forms, such as a nose seen in profile or from the front. In the sheet-metal sculptures, we become aware of how little it takes to be able to recognize a line and a dot, for example, as an eye—and how quickly a glance at another surface of the same work can reconfigure that initial impression.

a colourful post-modern oil portrait of a futuristic Diana, goddess of the hunt, reimagined with biomechanical features and layered oil impasto, soft flesh tones colliding with metallic hues, her gaze fixed with haunting clarity, pale floral bodice rendered in brush-textured chromatics, bow clutched with polished chrome tension, hair adorned with synthetic blossoms, background fragmented into overgrown circuitry and ancient trees, vivid color slabs echoing both nature and machine
