    Pablo Picasso

    was an artist who is


    most famous for inventing new and very different ways to paint. Picasso was born
    on October 25, 1881, in Malaga, Spain. His father was also an artist. When he was
    young, Picasso studied art with his father and at art schools in Malaga and then in
    Barcelona. In 1897, he went to the Royal Academy in Madrid, but left and went
    home to Barcelona.

    In Barcelona, he became part of a group of artists and writers. Picasso began to


    travel to Paris in 1900 to meet and work with other young artists. After 1904, he
    lived in France most of the time.

    During his long life, Picasso painted in many different ways. From 1901 to 1904,
    he did most of his paintings in blue. This is called his Blue Period. From 1904 to
    1906, he used mostly red and pink, which is called his Pink Period. I

    n 1907, he invented a new kind of painting called cubism. People and objects were
    not painted as they are seen in real life. Instead, they were painted as geometrical
    forms, such as cubes. At first, most people did not like this new type of painting,
    but it slowly became more popular. In 1937, Picasso painted Guernica, one of his
    most famous cubist paintings. It shows his view of the death and destruction
    caused when Spanish civilians were bombed during the Spanish Civil War. The
    painting is now considered to be a masterpiece.

    Picasso worked on many other new types of paintings, but he was also a sculptor
    and a designer. In 1917, he designed the set and the costumes for a ballet. In the
    1940s, he wrote a play and two books of poetry. Picasso was very poor when he
    was a young artist, but he became wealthy and very famous. He was married twice
    and had four children. He died at age 91 in Antibes, France, on April 8, 1973.
