Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was a revolutionary Spanish artist whose innovations shaped the course of modern art. Renowned as a co-founder of Cubism, he continually reinvented his style, moving fluidly between painting, sculpture, printmaking, ceramics, and stage design. From his emotional Blue and Rose periods to creating radical forms in works like Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, Picasso challenged conventions of perspective and representation, opening new possibilities for abstraction and expression. Over a career spanning more than seven decades, Picasso produced an extraordinary body of work that defines 20th-century art and continues to inspire today. His achievements earned global recognition, and his works are held in major institutions worldwide, including the Musée Picasso in Paris, MoMA in New York, and the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid.
