He is one of the most recognized figures in 20th-century art. He is best known for co-founding the Cubist movement and for the wide variety of styles embodied in his work. Picasso demonstrated uncanny artistic talent in his early years, painting in a realistic manner through his childhood and adolescence; during the first decade of the twentieth century his style changed as he experimented with different theories, techniques, and ideas. Picasso creativity manifested itself in numerous mediums, including oil paintings, sculpture, drawing, and architecture. His revolutionary artistic accomplishments brought him universal renown and immense fortunes throughout his life, making him the best-known figure in twentieth century art.**Information from the artist's website: http://www.pablopicasso.org/Marc Chagall, was a French painter, draughtsman, printmaker, designer, sculptor, ceramicist and writer. A prolific artist, Chagall distinguished himself as an expressive colourist. His work is characterized by his consistant use of folkloric imagery and vibrant colour. His style, although developed in the years before World War I, underwent little progression throughout his long career. Though he preferred to be known as a Belarussian artist, following his exile from the Soviet Union in 1923 he was recognized as a major figure of the Ecole de Paris, especially in the later 1920s and the 1930s. In his last years he was regarded as a leading artist in stained glass.His emblematic irrationality shook off all outside influences while his compositions were based on colour, calling up chimerical processions of memory where reality and the imaginary are woven together into a legendary artist.  A painter-poet celebrated by Apollinaire and Cendrars, Chagall brought back the forgotten dimension of metaphor into French formalism.
