  1. Pablo Picasso (Abstract Art)

  2. Biography Pablo Ruiz Picasso (October 25, 1881 – April 8, 1973) was a Spanishpainter and sculptor. His full name was Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan NepomucenoMaría de los RemediosCipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Clito Ruiz y Picasso.[1] One of the most recognized figures in 20th century art, he is best known as the co-founder, along with Georges Braque, of cubism. Pablo Picasso was born in Málaga, Spain. He was believed to be a stillborn baby. However his uncle, Salvador Quiz Blasco a well known doctor, revived the baby by blowing cigar smoke into lifeless Pablo's lungs. The young Picasso showed a passion and a skill for drawing from an early age. After studying art in Madrid, he made his first trip to Paris in 1900, the art capital of Europe. He maintained a number of mistresses in addition to his wife or primary partner. Picasso was married twice and had four children by three women. Pablo Picasso died on April 8, 1973 in Mougins, France, while he and his wife Jacqueline entertained friends for dinner. His final words were "Drink to me, drink to my health, you know I can't drink any more."

  3. Cubism

  4. Cubism Cubism was a 20th century art movement that revolutionized Europeanpainting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music and literature. It developed as a short but highly significant art movement between about 1907 and 1914 in France. In cubist artworks, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form — instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. Often the surfaces intersect at seemingly random angles presenting no coherent sense of depth. The background and object planes interpenetrate one another to create the ambiguous shallow space characteristic of cubism.
