Five Greatest Accomplishments for Picasso

As I'm wrapping up my blog on Pablo Picasso I would like to tell you a little about five of his accomplishment that I thought were the best.

Accomplishment #5: Stalin Prize for Peace
Picasso was awarded the Lenin (Stalin) Peace Prize in 1950 for his involvement in the Soviet Union. The Lenin Pearce Prize was founded in 1949 of December 1 by Joseph Stalin. Picasso was the 3rd person awarded this prize. I believe this is an accomplishment because it showed that Picasso cared about others than himself and his paintings.

Accomplishment #4: Guernica Painting.
The Guernica painting is Picasso's most famous art work. Is a protest against the bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. It's painted on a black and white canvas. Was hailing in New York's museum of modern art, but then it was moved to Madrid. I believe this is an accomplishment because despite that most people hated his paintings that this one painting became his famous one. It just shows that if you work hard enough you can make it.

Accomplishment #3: Cubism Period.
The cubism period began at the beginning of the 20th century. It used Braques technique put on an abstract way. " it became very popular in 1910 and many artist after that have developed cubism techniques, paving a way for a cubism movement which extended to other styles like expressionism, surrealism and futhrism. This is a accomplishment because he had inspired other people to start to use cubism in some of their own artworks. He had made this something that people would end up using in the majority of their pieces.

Accomplishment #2: the Blue and Rose period.
The blue period invoked blue practically in most of Picasso's work. The blue period represents negative and sadness of his paintings. The rose period that goes along with the blue period signaled a choice of brighter pink tones within the previous blues. "Art experts even individuals that rejected his later innovative style, respected his blue period". I believe this is the second greatest accomplishment because Picasso's blue period only started when his dear friend Carlos shot himself in the head. Even though his friend had died he found the will to paint still, so many of the paintings he did was inspired by his friends death. Adding the pink to it was telling people that he was finally accepting the fact that he's gone.

Accomplishment #1: the achievement of Pablo Picasso himself.
This accomplishment is shown by the thousands of print reproductions of his art. "Lots of people collect Pablo Picasso painting for their precious value". I say this is the main accomplishment he made because its who he is and what he wanted to with his life. He succeed his goal and is happy with his life.
