Touring A Picasso Inspired Fine Art Gallery

By Michelle Mitchell


While there are a number of cities which host modern art museums, there are others which host no museums at all. As such, people often have to visit parks, libraries and galleries in order to view art. While this is the case, there is also one Picasso Inspired Fine Art Gallery in the Bay Area which is more like a small museum of work by the artist.

While Picasso was born on October 25th, 1881, the artist did not die until April 8th, 1973 at the age of 91. Up until that time, the painter worked in a number of different areas of the art world. Whether, painting, writing poetry, designing stages, creating and decorating ceramics, printmaking, constructing sculpture or drawing, the young artist enjoyed working with all types of media.

Some notable works created by the Master include, La Vie (1903, ) Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907, and The Girl In A Mirror (1932.) While Picasso also created numerous other pieces over the years, these are some of the most interesting. For, it is through these and other like pieces that viewers can sense the artist looking within and without for the inspiration behind so many pieces.

When it comes to cubism and surrealism in some of the pieces, it is believed the artist began working in these two styles due to a love of movement. As such, by creating pieces which provide an illusion of movement to the viewer, the painter managed to complete more than one masterpiece which included a number of different styles.

The artist put a great deal of time and effort into all the works created over time. In fact, the artist has now been referred to as one of the most influential and inspiring of the last twentieth century. Being known having co-created the cubist movement, the invention of collage and constructed sculpture, the artist worked with all forms of media and artistic styles.

When a young boy, the artist showed an affinity for abstract painting, though the interest somewhat faded in the beginning. Later, the artist began looking for ways to improve and prove such talent. As a result, the artist began working with mixed-media, thus continuing to keep old and new works interesting over time.

While names of some of the more recent original artwork are still being debated, the periods of work have now become known as The Chrystal period, Rose period, Synthetic Cubism, Analytic Cubism and The Blue period. Whereas, the most popular and well-known periods related to the artist are Cubism and Surrealism, there were other pieces created outside of any these periods.

While this is the case, there is a great deal of work created by the artist in the early 1900s is in more a neoclassical style. The surrealistic stylings of the artist can often be found in works from the 1920s. Prolific throughout life, the artist achieved widespread acclaim for the revolutionary art created during all such periods. After which, the artist has now become one of the most well known of the 20th century.
