Pablo Picasso has been a talented painter who had tried to demonstrate different part of the world in his painting, and who has been the most popular painter in the world. My work is about the famous artist Pablo Picasso. He was born in 1881, originated from Spain. Picasso was one of the most influential and greatest paint/sculptor of the 20th century. Picasso was very radical in his work that is why he impacted the modern and antic art with his unparalleled magnitude. His work coved the intellectual, social and political figures which sent strong messages to the universe. He has done more than 20,000 art work including drawing and ceramics. Picasso was born for art, he was very successful. In contrast of many other painters, Picasso has start working on his dreams in his dream when he was very young. But the beginning as hard as well which makes that“during 1893 the juvenile quality of his earliest work falls away, and by 1894 his career as a painter can be said to have begun” (Art Experts, n.d.). After that, he begun to follow his father who was a teacher. His painting career has been characterize by different stages that have been named by experts as: Blue period, Rose period, African influenced period of art, Analytic cubism period of art, and classicism and surrealism period of art.

...Word count - 796 “Art Is A Lie That Brings Us Nearer To The Truth” “Art is a lie that brings us nearer to the truth” - Pablo Picasso Pablo Picasso was a spanish artist who spent most of his years in France, the birth place of his master pieces. Picasso is best known for co-founding the cubist movement. During his youth Picasso drew in more of a realistic style but in the beginning of the 20th century he began to experiment with “different theories, techniques, and ideas.”(1) Applying his quote “Art is a lie that brings us nearer to the truth” to an art form such as visual arts we can see that this may have some truth to it in its self. When an artist creates a piece of work he and only he knows the meaning of this work. When he or she presents it to the public the spectators create their own meaning and truth in the work. Although, this assumption created from the mind of the spectator may not be the truth. Some one may see a painting and think nothing of it, but others will see a story, an emotion, and a meaning. The quote can be true for some but far from it for others. When evaluating this quote we must look at individual words used in the text to understand the true meaning of it. Pablo writes “Art is a lie” This may be because it is one individual's distorted portrayal of his or her emotion's, thoughts, ideas, ect. As stated above from person to person the meaning changes. He then says “nearer” This does not mean to be there, it is simply being close to or a short distance...

...The Evolution of Picasso Pablo Picasso was born in the Spanish coastal town, of Malaga on October 25, 1881 to parents Jose Ruiz Blasco and Maria Picasso Lopez. Picasso was known to be a genius by the time he was ten years old, which was when he painted his first picture. He would go on to paint very many paintings and the first of these were focused on bullfighting; the significance is in the fact that he had been exposed to it since he was 3. When Picasso turned 15, he entered the Barcelona’s School of Fine Arts, where his father was an art teacher. That is where he really learned to paint. Soon after entering the school he won a gold medal for his very realistic painting of a doctor, a nun, and a child at a sick woman’s bed entitled, “Science and Charity”. There was a rumor that one day Pablo’s father asked him to finish the pigeons in a picture he was working on. They say Pablo painted them so well that his father put down his paintbrush and never painted again. His father realized the talent that his son had. In 1899 Picasso quit his academic studies and joined the circle of young avant-garde artists and writers who gathered at the local tavern. There they worked on all different styles of art. In 1900 Picasso had his first solo exhibition, which included many different styles of art. Also in 1900, Picasso began traveling back and forth to Paris before settling there in 1904. While in Paris he began painting pictures from the streets of Paris and Barcelona. He would...

...Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) is considered to be the greatest artist of the 20th century. In his prolific career, which spanned 78 years, he created more than 20,000 works of art including paintings, lithographs, etchings, and sculpture. In 1947, for example, he created 2,000 pieces of ceramics and in 1968, in a seven-month period, he returned to some of his earlier themes such as circuses, and bullfights to create 347 etchings. His work encompassed many styles -- from realism to cubism and surrealism -- making it impossible to categorize into a single movement. He and fellow painter Georges Braque are credited with creating the cubist style. Another of Picasso's innovations was the creation of collage -- he pasted pieces of paper and oilcloth to a canvas and painted on the surface in a 1912 work titled Still Life With Chair Caning. Although he is best known for his innovative, cubist work Picasso had an extraordinary drawing skill, rivaling the expertise of 19th century neoclassical artist Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. Picasso was born in Málaga, Spain on October 25, 1881, the son of an art teacher. Prior to 1898, he used his father's name, "Ruiz," and his mother's maiden name, "Picasso," to sign his paintings. After 1901, he signed his work simply with the name "Picasso." A child prodigy, he painted his first picture at the age of ten; by...

...perspective, as well as giving his piece direction. His piece makes you center in on the middle and the figures dancing in a circle. Each figure is painted peacefully in their own unique ways, some relaxing, others dancing, and a couple embracing each other. Matisse depicted a celebration of life, sexuality, and womanhood. Matisse’s Joy of Life and Picasso’s Les Demoiselles are two complete different styles. Matisse’s landscape is a broad open field. His figures are un-crowded and relate to the forms of nature that surrounds them. Picasso, on the other hand, compressed the space and took Matisse’s sensual relaxed atmosphere and turned it into an assertively pornographic ambiance. Picasso chose deep tones and shattered forms, where Matisse used clear, bright pigments and graceful curves. Artist: Pablo Picasso Title: Les Demoiselles Medium: Oil on Canvas Date: 1907 Style: Cubism The Les Demoiselles is a very disturbing painting. Picasso strayed from current and classical French influences and created cubism, which became groundbreaking in the art culture. This painting is of five prostitutes in a brothel in Barcelona. The faces are distorted; the eyes are derived from African tribal masks and the art of Oceania, as said by the critics. Form and representation is...

Most often, people would firmly say that new ways of thinking are innovative and new advances are advantageous; for example, in Economics, advances in technology would lead to a greater productive and allocative efficiency, which would result in greater levels of economic growth for a certain country, which, of course, it’s a great benefit for the society. However, there is also a need for discovery new data and facts to broaden our knowledge, and we can’t overlook this. It’s human nature. Humans seek to understand the world in which they live in: its physical and non-physical aspects.

...Vincent Van Gogh Vincent Van Gogh is a world-renowned artist famous for paintings such as Sunflowers, many of his self portraits, and Starry Night; the painting that will be discussed later. Van Gogh was diagnosed with several mental and physical disorders. The disorders he suffered from include; manic depression, epilepsy, and bipolar disorder. Through these disorders and problems Van Gogh produced some of the most amazing and popular works of art seen through out the world today. Could Van Gogh’s illnesses be the cause for the certain styles and colors he used in his paintings? Or was it his time period that influenced his style of paintings? Vincent Van Gogh’s illnesses, failures, and the post-impressionist era greatly influenced his style and methods of painting. It is proven time and time again that Vincent van Gogh’s many diagnosed illnesses have greatly influenced his paintings. Van Gogh suffered from many diagnosed diseases and problems such as Lead poisoning, Epilepsy, and Manic Depression. These diseases could have greatly altered the way he painted, the colors he used, and the theme of his paintings. He also may have suffered other diseases or mental issues that were never discovered by doctors or by his family. We will never completely know what exactly went on in the mind of Vincent Van Gogh. “Lead poisoning occurs when lead builds up in the body, often over a period of months or years. Even small amounts of lead can cause serious health problems. At very high...

...Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep.[1] The content and purpose of dreams are not definitively understood, though they have been a topic of scientific speculation, as well as a subject of philosophical and religious interest, throughout recorded history. The scientific study of dreams is called oneirology.[2] Dreams mainly occur in the rapid-eye movement (REM) stage of sleep—when brain activity is high and resembles that of being awake. REM sleep is revealed by continuous movements of the eyes during sleep. At times, dreams may occur during other stages of sleep. However, these dreams tend to be much less vivid or memorable.[3] The length of a dream can vary; they may last for a few seconds, or approximately 20–30 minutes.[3] People are more likely to remember the dream if they are awakened during the REM phase. The average person has three to five dreams per night, but some may have up to seven dreams in one night.[4] The dreams tend to last longer as the night progresses. During a full eight-hour night sleep, most dreams occur in the typical two hours of REM.[5] In modern times, dreams have been seen as a connection to the unconscious mind. They range from normal and ordinary to overly surreal and bizarre. Dreams can have varying natures, such as frightening, exciting, magical, melancholic, adventurous, or sexual. The events in dreams are generally outside the control of the...
