Pablo Picasso (1881-1973)

Pablo Ruiz Picasso was born in 1881 in the city of Málaga, Spain. He first attended the Art Academy La Llotja in Barcelona and from 1897 onwards the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid, which he quit without graduating. The artist spent the years around the turn of the century in Paris. He established Cubism with his French friend Georges Braque, deeply influencing later avant-garde artists. His painting of 1907 ‘Les Demoiselles d’Avignon’ became the key work of modernism. Picasso left behind an enormous body of work of around 50.000 works of art, comprising paintings, drawings, graphic art, sculptures and pottery. Already during Picasso’s lifetime, two museums were established in his honor: the Museo Picasso in Barcelona and the Musée Picasso in Antibes in Southern France.
