This particular piece was finished in 1952, after Picasso's cubism style was developed. The choppy shapes remind viewers of a collage, or synthetic cubism. Synthetic cubism is the use of cut paper fragments, wallpaper or newspaper, pasted into the composition. ]]> 2016-11-28 20:16:59 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140329129 teerica_agnew17 https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140331566

In February 1901 Picasso’s friend Casagemas committed suicide: he shot himself in a Parisian café because a girl he loved had refused him. His death was a great shock to Picasso, and the painter would return to it again and again in his art: he painted the Death of Casagemas in color, the Death of Casagemas again in blue and then “Evocation – The Burial of Casagemas]]> 2016-11-28 20:24:46 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140331566 teerica_agnew17 https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140332116

Impressed with African sculptures at an ethnographic museum he tried to combine the angular structures of the “primitive art” and his new ideas about cubism. The critics immediately dubbed this stage in his work the African Period, seeing in it only an imitation of African ethnic art.]]> 2016-11-28 20:26:41 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140332116 teerica_agnew17 https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140333833

splits forms up into facet-like stereo-metric shapes. The famous portraits of Fernande, Woman with Pears, and of the art dealers Vollard and Kahnweiller are fulfilled in the analytical cubist style .]]> 2016-11-28 20:33:02 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140333833 teerica_agnew17 https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140335570

This is one of the most lyrical portraits of Françoise Gilot. When you look at photos of this woman, you understand that there is something ethereal in her, which distinguishes her from others. Picasso met Françoise in 1946. First, it was art that pulled them together, but some time later they fell in love and their affair lasted nearly a decade]]> 2016-11-28 20:39:50 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140335570 teerica_agnew17 https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140336623

The painting «First Communion» was created by 15-year-old Picasso on the advice of his father for the Exhibition of Fine Arts in Barcelona in 1896. At that time, Pablo attended La Lonja School of Art. Picasso has never been a devotee or a religionist (at least in the traditional sense of the word). ]]> 2016-11-28 20:48:09 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140337841 teerica_agnew17 https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140338680

Picasso met Jacqueline Roque at the pottery where she worked. She was 27 and he was 72. He drew doves in chalk on the walls of her house and gave her a rose each day. In 6 months she said yes and they got married in March 1961. 

“Jacqueline with Flowers” (1954) is one of the first paintings signifying the beginning of a new period in the maitre’s creative work]]> 2016-11-28 20:51:39 UTC https://padlet.com/teerica_agnew17/Bookmarks/wish/140338680
