1. Three main periods in the work of Pablo Picasso

3. Pablo became interested in art at an early age. At the age of 13 his first exhibition was held. In his early period the young artist painted life as he saw it around him-in cafes and in the streets. THE YELLOW PICADOR(1889)

4. Later after an accident with his close friend, he was very sad and began painting his pictures in grey and blue colours instead of bright,vivid ones. This part of his career is called his Blue Period(1901-1904). MOTHER AND CHILD(1901) MOTHER AND CHILD BY A FOUNTAIN(1901)

5. THE BLIND MAN'S MEAL(1903)OLD JEW WITH A BOY(1903)

6. Later on,he changed his painting style and started using more earth colours-rose,pink or brown. He liked to paint pictures of circus life with dancers and acrobats. This Rose Period lasted until 1907. CIRVUS FAMILY(1905) TWO ACROBATS WITH A DOG(1905)

7. SEATED HARLEQUIN(1905) THE ACTOR(1904)

8. He is probably best known for his «Cubist» pictures,which used only simple geometric shapes. His paintings of people were often made up of triangles and squares with their features in the wrong place. HOUSES ON THE HILL(1909) THE BOTTE OF RUM(1911)

9. One of this masterpieces of this period is his Guernica. It shows the terrified people of the ancient Spanish town which was bombed during the Civil War. Picasso was shocked by this inhuman act and in his painting he shows people running in the streets and screaming with their mouths wide open. To display his sadness and anger he used only black and white as well as shades of grey. 1937

10. Picasso created over 6000 paintings,drawings and sculptures. For his great imagination and skill he is called «El Maestro» of modern art. «Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot; others transform a yellow spot into the sun.» -Pablo Picasso
