Picasso's full name was Pablo (or Pablito) Diego José Santiago Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno Crispín Crispiniano de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz Blasco y Picasso López.
Pablo had his first exhibit at age 13, when he showed his paintings in the back room of an umbrella store.
Picasso's father was an instructor at the School of Fine Arts in Málaga.
Outraged by fascist excesses during World War II, Picasso joined the French Communist Party in 1947 and in 1950 was awarded the Lenin Peace Prize.
Guernica was returned to Spain from the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1981, according to Picasso's wishes that the work not go back to Spain until the end of Fascist rule there. |
