picasso
A couple of weeks ago I embarked on a journey to the Currier gallery of art. Myself and a few students from our class were on a mission to view the art they were displaying at the time. It was an interesting trip to say the least. When we entered the building I noticed a small cafe, my friends would not let me enjoy the Irish cream latte I wanted so bad. Anyway, back to our journey, we entered the museum and started to just look around, this was not my first time in a museum however I was extremely disappointed in this particular museum. This past summer I visited the Boston museum of fine art, Boston's museum was so much larger,
Pablo expressed his sorrow for the lost soldiers, and his rage against the war. The painting is larger then I thought I would estimate that it is four and a half feet tall and three and a half feet wide. The painting was completed in 1941, it is created with oil on canvas. The chair that the women is seated in presents a verticle aspect that coincides with the random lines from the red and green background. The painting has a 3 dimensional look to it created by oil paint that is placed on in drops. This piece was created during world war II, this was the major influence for the style and representation of the women. I expected the Currier to smaller then Boston but I did not think they would be that small. After looking at all of the art they had on display I chose to write about a very popular painting but a well known artist. Pablo was very much against the war, he wanted peace. The women in the painting was a women that would photograph for Picasso, she was working with him for ten years. Pablo Picasso's "women seated in chair" this piece is known though out the whole world, I was excited to see that Manchester had it. The choice of colors are complemtary, they all work well, it creates the visual effect that is appealing to the eye. The distorted image represents his feelings of being trapped. The drops of oil stick out a little less then an inch from the surface. The museum acquired it in 1953 as an anonymous gift.
