Picasso at AGO

Do you know Picasso? Last Friday we went to the AGO and saw the Picasso Exhibition. Picasso was born in Spain the city of  Malaga in 1881, and died in France in 1973. He was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, and stage designer. He spent most of his adult life in Paris. Picasso was One of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century. Picasso's creativity is amazing. His works total approximately 60,000 but he only paintied ten thousand pictures. He was a artist who lived to see their collertion of works installed in the Louvre painter. Picasso's life is so Brilliant.

Picasso received formal artistic training from his father in figure and oil painting when he was 7 years old. When Picasso was 16, Picasso's father and uncle decided to send him to Madrid's Royal Academy of San Fernando, the country's foremost art school. Picasso made his first trip to Paris in 1900. Paris was the art capital of Europe. There he met his first Parisian friend and began the time of  his Blue Period....
