Pablo Picasso (Málaga 1881 – 1973 Mougins) was a Spanish-French painter, sculptor, graphic artist and ceramicist who had a significant influence on Cubism, Synthetic Cubism and Surrealism. Born on 25 October 1881 in Málaga, the son of an art teacher, he studied briefly at the La Llotja art academy in Barcelona, moved to Paris (Bateau-Lavoir) in 1904, developed Cubism with Georges Braque between 1907 and 1914 (“Les Demoiselles d’Avignon” 1907, ‘Ma Jolie’ 1911/12), founded the Ballets Russes in collaboration with Cocteau in 1919, was a member of the French Communist Party from 1945, and received the Lenin Peace Prize in 1958. Picasso created analytical and synthetic Cubism, Neoclassicism (the Ingrès imitators of the 1920s), Surrealism (“Weeping Woman”, 1937), and symbolic doves (“Dove of Peace”, 1949) using a fragmented formal language, multi-perspective spatial division and an expressive colour palette, influenced by Cézanne, African sculpture and classical antiquity; over 50,000 works in oil, drawing, bronze and ceramics. Related artists and terms: Georges Braque, Henri Matisse, Juan Gris, Guillaume Apollinaire, Cubism, Synthetic Cubism, Bateau-Lavoir, Ballets Russes, Guernica, Musée Picasso Paris, Paul Cézanne, Analytical Cubism, Blue Period, Guernica, Max Ernst
