2. PABLO PICASSO.
My name is Pablo Picasso.
I was born in the Spanish
town of Málaga in 1881.
Ever since I was a boy, I
liked to paint.
My father was a painter
and Art Teacher.
3. PABLO PICASSO.
• My first drawings were of bulls
and doves.
• I did them when I was just 9
years old.
A child with a dove.
5. PABLO PICASSO.
• I studied arts at La Coruña, Barcelona and
Madrid.
• But academic studies never excited me...
• My dream was to visit Paris.
6. PARIS IN BLUE AND PINK.
• I arrived in Paris in 1900.
• There I set about
discovering the artistic
movements of the period.
• There was so much to
learn!!!!
• Suddenly, my best friend
Carlos died.
• I was very sad and I
started to paint
everything in BLUE.
7. PARIS IN BLUE AND PINK.
• Soon afterwards I fell in LOVE.
• I began to paint everything using PINK.
• At that time I spent a lot of time at the circus. So,
I painted harlequins, jugglers and clowns.
8. A NEW WAY OF SEEING.
• Why paint things to look so real?
• Could be there another way to
represent objects and figures?
• Then he experimented with new
materials, made collages, sculptures,
ceramics,...
• And he found a new language:
9. WAR AND ART.
• In 1935 the Spanish Civil War started.
• A new change took place in my life.
• I was shocked by a sad news:
• The Basque city of GUERNICA was
cruelly bombed and destroyed in April of
1937, during the Spanish Civil War.
• I painted a mural as big as a wall, in one
month.
11. With this electric light Picasso said
that this is not a natural dissaster,
this is a MAN MADE DISSASTER.
THIS IS A WAR.
12. What can you see?
A woman crying with
her dead baby.
A bull watching
the dissaster. A man burning!.
A soldier dead in pieces on the ground.
13. GOODBYE!
• I lived an apassionate life.
• I never came back to Spain.
• I died in Mougins, France, on
the 8th of April of 1973.
• I was 92 years old.
This is
my
portrait.
