Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, and stage designer who spent most of his adult life in France. As one of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century, he is widely known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture, the co-invention of collage, and for the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore. Among his most famous works are the proto-Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907), and Guernica (1937), a portrayal of the German bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War.

Picasso, along with Georges Braque, developed the cubist movement, exploring the decomposition and reconstruction of forms. The analytical cubism of Picasso and Braque is exemplified in their respective works Les Trois Femmes (1908) and Violon et Bougie (1910). In these famous paintings, deconstructed objects merge into abstract elements, prefiguring the later to come synthetic cubism.

His immense body of work continues to inspire artists today. Over the course of his lifetime, he created over 20,000 artworks from paintings, limited-edition prints and lithographs, sculptures and ceramics. From his early blue and rose works to his revolutionary Cubist experiments, he transcended artistic movements and inscribed himself in the canons of art history through bold and unprecedented artistic creations.
