Yve-Alain Bois: In this painting, as I’ve said before, we realize that you don't need to have one homogenous style within a painting; there is a recognition that painting is a language. Picasso's interest is in transforming something into something else. That is, anything can be the sign for something else. There is no one-to-one meaning. Anything can become a sign for a bull's head: the combination of a bicycle seat and handlebar, for example. Anything can become transformed, and there's a fundamental belief in the transformational character of art that is characteristic of all of his production.
