Pablo Picasso Born in 1881. A Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, stage designer, poet, and playwright who spent most of his adult life in France. He is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century and the founder of the Cubist movement. Picasso's artistic style is known for its wide range of creativity, including the invention of assemblage sculpture and the rediscovery of collage. His representative works include Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907), created at the dawn of Cubism, and Guernica (1937), which depicts the scene of the German and Italian air forces bombing Spanish citizens at the request of Spanish nationalists during the Spanish Civil War. Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Marcel Duchamp were artists who were responsible for the revolutionary development of visual art in the early 20th century, and contributed to a wide range of visual art fields, including not only painting but also sculpture, printmaking, and ceramics. This work, "Guernica," is based on the incident in which the Nazi German and Italian armies, who intervened in the Spanish Civil War, bombed the village of Guernica in the Basque Country, Spain. Many art critics have praised it as one of the most powerful anti-war paintings in art history, depicting people suffering in the violence and chaos of civil war. The work, which is striking in its monochrome and gray colors, depicts bloody scenes such as miserable livestock and burning flames. It was exhibited at the Paris World's Fair in 1937 and then toured around the world. When "Guernica" was installed at the exhibition, it did not attract much attention at first. On the contrary, some politicians in the Republican government, which commissioned it, criticized it as "anti-social and absurd." After the fair ended, the work toured Europe, including Norway and the United Kingdom. The funds earned from the tour were used to provide relief for the victims of the Spanish Civil War. It was after World War II that "Guernica" began to attract serious attention. It received worldwide acclaim and ultimately contributed to drawing attention to the Spanish Civil War around the world.
