PABLO PICASSO

Who is Picasso?  Pablo Picasso was a famous Spanish artist who is considered one of the greatest artists of the 20th Century.  He is well known for being one of the co-founders of cubism.  Cubism refers to art where the subject is broken up into different sections. It is called cubism because the items represented in the artwork look they are made out of cubes and other geometric shapes.
