- Pablo Picasso, born in 1881 in Málaga, Spain, was one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. He co-founded the Cubist movement and developed a wide range of styles throughout his prolific career. His work spans painting, sculpture, printmaking, ceramics, and stage design, with groundbreaking contributions to modern art. Picasso is best known for works like Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907) and Guernica (1937), where he experimented with form, color, and abstraction to challenge traditional artistic norms.
Picasso’s works are some of the most valuable in the art market. His painting Women of Algiers sold for a record $179.4 million in 2015. His extraordinary influence and versatility across different periods, including the Blue Period, Rose Period, and Cubism, make his artworks some of the most sought-after by collectors worldwide.
The painting "Dora Maar" from 1937 depicts Picasso’s lover and muse, the French photographer Dora Maar. This portrait, with its bold, expressive colors and distorted forms, is characteristic of Picasso’s style during his Surrealist and Cubist phases. The face is fragmented, with exaggerated eyes and sharp angles, which create a sense of emotional intensity and complexity. The colors—vivid yellows, greens, and pinks—reflect Picasso's emotional engagement with Maar, as she often appeared in his works during the late 1930s and early 1940s.
This painting was created during the same period as his masterpiece Guernica, when Picasso was deeply affected by the Spanish Civil War. The fragmented and distorted nature of Dora Maar reflects the broader themes of turmoil and psychological depth present in his work at the time. The portrait has become one of Picasso’s iconic depictions of women, symbolizing both personal and political strife.
In summary, Picasso’s contributions to modern art are unparalleled, and his works remain among the highest-valued in the world. His portrayal of Dora Maar in 1937 exemplifies his unique ability to merge emotional depth with innovative form and color.
Picasso, one of the most important artist of the recent years such as Hockney, Matisse, Soulages, Lagasse, Rothko, Miró, Ramos, Haring, among others.
