There is little argument that Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) is the Twentieth Century’s greatest and most influential artist. Picasso was a genius. His paintings, drawings, prints, and sculptures reveal endless creativity and passion for life. His works range from realistic to abstract: the Blue, Rose, and African periods, Analytical and Synthetic Cubism, Neo-Classicism, Surrealism. Picasso was not true to a style. He was true to the power of personal expression.
Picasso was born and educated in Spain. Although Picasso spent much of his career in the avant-garde capital city of Paris, he had a strong emotional and cultural connection to his Spanish roots.
Picasso was not a political artist. However, he was so enraged by the 1936-1939 Spanish Civil War (a conflict created by the Fascist coup, of General Francisco Franco and the Nationalists, of the elected Republican government), that he became political. In support of Spanish Republican forces, Picasso painted a mural for the 1937 World’s Fair, in Paris. The inspiration for the subject of the mural occurred on April 26, 1937.
