Pablo picasso cubism art series#

I can admire the skill involved, and how it works, but itвЂ™s not what IвЂ™m going to put up in my house. Totally going to admit, IвЂ™m not a fan of Cubism. He created amazing artwork in classical styles at a young age, but he slowly evolved into a new style. If you watched the video up above you know Picasso was gifted.

ItвЂ™s a great quick introduction to Picasso. However, everyone should watch this video. Only watch this video with older kids, Guernica is one of PicassoвЂ™s most controversial pieces of art, so it could bother elementary-aged kids. The first one is great for junior high and high schoolers and their Picasso art lesson, but the second video, everyone needs to watch that one. ThatвЂ™s why I headed over to Youtube and grabbed a couple of videos to go with my library books. Which is not a lot to build an art lesson on. Oh, and he had a blue period and painted some really weird looking portraits of naked women. ThatвЂ™s my background knowledge before starting our Picasso lesson. My freshman history teacher taught us all about Guernica, and how it was so controversial that 50 years after it was created, it still had guards standing in front of it to make sure no one defaced it. I can teach you about the history of some artists, but honestly, if you get anything more modern than DaVinci and IвЂ™m going to spout a few words and then be clueless. IвЂ™m going to tell you, IвЂ™m not an art expert.

Lumpito and the Painter from Spain (this looks to be out of print, so keep an eye out for it at used bookstores, or if youвЂ™re local to me itвЂ™s at the library, by the by my Spain book list is now up in the Subscriber page), And Picasso Painted Guernica, Pablo Picasso, Getting to Know the Artist (I love this series and use it whenever I can) (there are affiliate links in here) Resources for our Picasso art lesson Apparently I found the pictures from this Picasso lesson just as confusing as I find PicassoвЂ™s artwork. IвЂ™m not sure if this was part of our Spain study or part of our study of Modern History. As proof, my boys were shorter than me when we did geography lesson or maybe it was an art lesson. I may have lost this Picasso art lesson for years and then found it while looking through unwritten posts.
