by Alison Binger (Instructor) - Friday, 27 December 2019, 8:03 PM Pablo Picasso is one of the most famous artists in the art world. He, unlike many of
the artist you have learned so far, was famous while he was alive and creating his
artwork. He had a long career, 78 years, and created more than 20,000 pieces of /art. He created paintings, drawings, sculptures, ceramics, costumes, and theater
sets. He is most known for his paintings and creating the Cubist art movement. His
impact in the art world was tremendous. He is known as the father of Modern Art.
Please watch the following videos about Picasso. The rst video is a breadth of his
work. The second video provides a wonderful overview of his work and how it can be
interpreted (8 minutes).
Enjoy~Dr. Binger

Re: Discussion 7
by Kay Davids - Saturday, 28 December 2019, 12:01 AM In order to explain whether Picasso’s Guernica would be classied as Expressionism,
Cubism, Dadaism or Surrealism, we rst need to be able to properly characterize
these styles.
Expressionism appeared around 1910. It emphasized the emotional impact instead of
accurately depicting subjects. Expressionist artists use colour, line and visible
techniques to call up emotional feelings within viewers (Expressionism, an
introduction, n.d.). Below is an example of Picasso’s expressionism.
Pablo Picasso. (1903) La Vie [Oil painting on canvas] Cleveland Museum of Art
Cubism was invented by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in Paris between 1907
and 1914 (Moat, n.d.). Cubism is characterized by its angular shapes. As the
movement progressed the complex system which seemed to be understood by only a
few appeared to have little concern for aesthetics. The movement is known to be
“dicult” and is an analysis of vision and of its representation which makes it
challenging to understand. The painting below is considered not yet Cubism, but
instead the foundation on which Cubism was built (Harris, Zucker, n.d.). /Pablo Picasso. (1907) Les Demoiselles d'Avignon [Oil painting on canvas]
The short-lived anti-movement known as Dadaism is dicult to explain. The intention
of the style is to puzzle, amuse and provoke viewers. Artists associated with Dadaism
rejected the label and expressed themselves in numerous formats including journals,
manifestos, poems, performances and other “gestures”. They use a wide range of
media and often mesh crude humour and wordplay to reect on their opinions of art,
language, and social customs. Dadaism changed the way art is viewed, introducing
experimental media, themes, and practices (Chadwick, n.d.). Below is an example of
Picasso’s Dadaism work.
Pablo Picasso. (1912) La guitare [Paperboard, paper, thread, string, twine, and coated
wire]
Finally, Surrealism is dened as “psychic automatism in its pure state” which, in
creative terms means the artist attempts to create automatically and naturally
without preconceived ideas of what the nal product will be. They throw reason and
rationality out the window and use only their unconscious mind. This practice often
leads to imagery that is outlandish, perplexing and uncanny and is meant to remove
the comfort viewers feel when assumptions are met (The Art Story Contributors,
2011). Below is an example of Picasso’s Surrealist inuenced work, however, he never
really took to the ideals, he was more interested in the primitivism, violence, and
eroticism believed to be found in the dark side of the unconscious mind (Focus on
Pablo Picasso. 2018).
