It is the story of a journey between styles, from one way of painting, to another. It is the path <strong>Pablo Picasso took when he spent two months in the Eternal City.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>MARIO DE SIMONI<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> Picasso. Between Cubism and Classicism<\/strong><br \/>\n <em>'It commemorates the centenary of Picasso's first Italian trip, specifically, his period in Rome. It is an important journey that changes Picasso's career and art.'<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Spanish artist traveled to Rome from Paris, which was a city almost in the front line of battle in a convulsive war. In Italy, he found peace and also some new ideas that later changed his masterpieces.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MARIO DE SIMONI<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> Picasso. Between Cubism and Classicism <\/strong><br \/>\n<em> 'He arrived in Rome devoted to Cubism, but returned with a neoclassical and classic form of the great Greek-Roman art that he saw in Italy.'<\/em><\/p>\n<p>At 36, Picasso was already considered a<strong> pioneer of the cubism art movement<\/strong>. Then his friend, Jean Cocteau, convinced him to decorate the Russian Ballets in Rome for the ballet 'Parade.' The result was this huge fabric, 'Curtain for the Ballet 'Parade'.'<\/p>\n<p>Together, with the Italian iconographic tradition and Greek-Roman classicism, Picasso also discovered love with an Ukrainian dancer, Olga Khokhlova. She was his first wife, and is portrayed in this work, 'Portrait of Olga in the Armchair.'<\/p>\n<p>From his Cubist paintings, he began working on these others, which relate to the classical sculptures he found in Italy.<\/p>\n<p>The difference is evident when comparing these two paintings: 'Two women running on the beach' and 'The Pipes of Pan.' They bear witness to the transition in the Spanish genius' work.<\/p>\n<p>Rome, in just a short time, gave Picasso what he needed at that time, which was a real renaissance, and new ideas for a visionary who never ceased to be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November 12, 2017.
