    PABLO PICASO’S BIOGRAPHY
    Early years

    • Pablo Picasso was the son of José Ruiz Blasco, a professor


    of drawing, and Maria Picasso López. His unusual
    adeptness for drawing began to manifest itself early,
    around the age of 10, when he became his father’s pupil
    in A Coruña, where the family moved in 1891.
    • The family moved to Barcelona in the autumn of 1895,
    and Pablo entered the local art academy (La Llotja),
    where his father had assumed his last post as professor of
    drawing.
    • Picasso fell ill in the spring of 1898 and spent most of the
    remaining year convalescing in the Catalan village of
    Horta de Ebro in the company of his Barcelona friend
    Manuel Pallarès.
    • In Barcelona Picasso moved among a circle of Catalan
    artists and writers whose eyes were turned toward Paris.
    Those were his friends at the café Els Quatre Gats (“The
    Four Cats,” styled after the Chat Noir [“Black Cat”] in
    Paris), where Picasso had his first Barcelona exhibition in
    February 1900, and they were the subjects of more than
    50 portraits (in mixed media) in the show.
    Discovery of Paris

    • One of Picasso’s principal artistic discoveries on that trip


    (October–December) was colour—not the drab colours of
    the Spanish palette, the black of the shawls of Spanish
    women, or the ochres and browns of the Spanish
    landscape but brilliant colour—the colour of 
    Vincent van Gogh, of new fashion, of a city celebrating a 
    world’s fair.
    • The return of Picasso
    • The death of casagemas the loyal friend of Picasso
    The Blue Period

    • Between 1901 and mid-1904, when blue was the


    predominant colour in his paintings, Picasso moved back
    and forth between Barcelona and Paris, taking material for
    his work from one place to the other.
    The move to Paris and the Rose Period

    • Picasso finally made the decision to move permanently to


    Paris in the spring of 1904, and his work reflects a change
    of spirit and especially a response to different intellectual
     and artistic currents.
    • The tones of the Blue Period were replaced from late 1904
    to 1906 in the so-called Rose Period by those of pottery,
    of flesh, and of the earth itself (The Harem [1906])

    CUBISM

    • Picasso and Braque worked together closely during the


    next few years (1909–12)—the only time Picasso ever
    worked with another painter in this way—and they
    developed what came to be known as Analytical Cubism.
    • As Kahnweiler saw it, Cubism signified the opening up of
    closed form by the “re-presentation” of the form of
    objects and their position in space instead of their
    imitation through illusionistic means; and the analytic
     process of fracturing objects and space, light and
    shadow, and even colour was likened by Apollinaire to the
    way in which the surgeon dissects a cadaver.
    New Mediterraneanism

    • After his travels to Italy and a return to Barcelona in 1917


    (Parade was performed there in November), a new spirit
    of Mediterraneanism made itself felt in his work,
    especially in the use of classical forms and drawing
     techniques.
    Surrealism
    • The Surrealist establishment, including its main
    propagandist, André Breton, claimed him as one of their
    own, and Picasso’s art gained a new dimension from
    contact with his Surrealist friends, particularly the writers.
    Sculpture

    • Beginning in 1928, Picasso began to work in iron and


    sheet metal in Julio González’s studio in Paris. Then, in
    1930, he acquired the château Boisgeloup (northwest of
    Paris), where he had room for sculpture studios.
