Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, and one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. He is best known for co-founding the Cubist movement and for his diverse artistic styles that evolved throughout his career. From his early Blue and Rose periods to the groundbreaking work in Cubism with pieces like "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" and "Guernica," Picasso's art challenged traditional representations and explored complex themes of war, love, and identity. His innovative techniques and prolific output, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, and printmaking, solidified his legacy as a pioneering figure in modern art.
