During this period, oath and pink cheerful tones were released in the paintings of the master to the fore. New sustainable topics of work appeared: acrobats, wandering actors, harlequins ("Acrobat and young harlequin" (1905), "Family of Comedians" (1905), "Jester" (1905)). The artist fascinated the comedians, whom he enthusiastically wrote. Pablo began to attend Circus "Medrano", and Harlequin can be called a favorite character of the artist at that time. In 1904, Pablo got acquainted with Fernanda Olivier, model. She inspired Picasso to create many famous works of the "pink" period. They settled together in the area of \u200b\u200bParis Bohemia and Mecca artists of Bato Lavarar. The building of strange architecture, dilapidated, with winding corridors and dark stairs, shelted a very different company: merchants, poets, artists, wipers ... Picasso lived in poverty, at the edge of poverty, in an unimaginable creative disorder. He all the time wrote his beloved Fernanda, looking for his way in art.

At the beginning of the 20th century, Picasso with his friend K. Cashamac leaves Spain and comes to Paris. Here, Pablo close acquaints with the works of French impressionists, in particular, A. Toulouse-Lotrek and E. Degi, who in due time will have a serious impact on the development of the artist's creative thought.

Unfortunately, in love with the Frenchwoman and rejected by her, Casanemas in February 1901 commit suicide. The faces of real life and art for Picasso have always been inseparable, and this is a tragic event, deeply shook the artist, was reflected in subsequent works.

From 1901 with Picasso, multicolor paints are leaving, giving way to shades of a blue-green palette. In the work of the artist, the "blue" period comes.

Deep, cold and suction gamma of emerald, blue, blue, green colors and shades. How it is impossible to transmit the main topics of the Picasso creativity of this period - human suffering, death, old age, poverty and despondency. The paintings are filled with the images of blind, prostitutes, beggars and alcoholics, soaked with a feeling of longing and hopelessness. During this period, the artist, not stopping the warmary lifestyle, works, creating up to three pictures per day. "Blue room" (1901), "Breakfast of the blind" (1903), "Beggar old man with a boy" (1903), "Tragedy" (1903), "Two" (1904) and, of course, the famous "absinthe lover" (1901 ) - All of these are bright examples of paintings "blue" period.

In 1904, Picasso settles in Bato Lavaroar - a famous hostel on Montmartre, where many artists found their refuge. At this time, he meets his Muse - model Fernanda Olivier, who has become the inspirational of many famous works. And acquaintance with Poets M. Jacob and G. Apolliner gives a new topic, the incarnation in his paintings is a circus and the life of circus artists. So, gradually the work and creativity of the artist begin to penetrate new colors. The "Pink" period of artistic quest for the master comes to replace the "Blue".

At this time, the artist appeals to more cheerful tones - pink, smoky-pink, golden-pink, ohloom. The heroes of the paintings are clowns, acrobats, gymnasts, harlequins: "Acrobat and young harlequin" (1905), "Acrobatov family with a monkey" (1905), "Jester" (1905). The theme of the romantic life of stray artists is revealed in one of the most significant and recognizable his paintings - "Girl on a bowl" (1905).

Later, at the end of the "pink" period, the artist writes paintings in the spirit of ancient heritage - "Girl with a goat" (1906), "Boy leading horse" (1906).

Blue and subsequent "pink" periods of creative life Pablo Picasso became an expression of his quest in the transfer of mood and its vision of the world with color.

"Pink" period

The "pink" period in the work of Picasso lasted for a long time - from the fall of 1904 and until the end of 1906, most paintings are withstanding in bright flavor, pearl-gray, oath and pink-red tones appear. There are new images - actors, acrobats, athletes. At the foot of the Montmarter Hill was located Circus Medrano, here Picasso and found the themes for their works. Theatricality, a variety of human types, beauty and disgrace, youth and maturity - all this returned the artist into a multicolor world, full of various emotions. Accordingly, his palette has changed, it stopped dominated by blue-green cold and sad tones. A kind of bridge between the "blue" and "pink" period was the work "Woman in a shirt".

From February 25 to March 6, 1905, the exhibition took place in the Serural Gallery, on which Picasso showed his new works. During this period, "Actor", "Acrobats. Mother and son "," Family of Comedians "- a huge canvas 2? 2 m. Picasso wrote naked women, young people, and their beauty and plastic. How it is impossible to the serenity reigning in his soul.

The famous canvas "Girl on a bowl", written in gentle pearl, pink, blue tones, with a new sensation of air and space, became a recognized masterpiece of the "pink" period. The lightweight, flexible figure of the girl-acrobatki, balancing on the ball, contrasts with the massiveness of a stable cube, on which the athlete-boat is seated.

A joyful feeling of life contributed to the continuing relationship with the beautiful Fernanda Olivier, which in addition to unearthly beauty turned out to be a magnificent mistress. On tiny money, she managed to cook a tasty, satisfying lunch and feed not only Pablo, but also his friends who were raised on the light. When some extra money appeared, the artist visited the cafe "Prompt Oswelle". At the same time, he brought acquaintance with several oldevists who bought his paintings for his companions.

In February 1905, several works of Picasso were exhibited in the Serural Gallery on the Osman Boulevard. Apolliner wrote about him an article where a big future predicted painter. Personal patron, Olivier Sensser official, thanks to which the artist received a residence permit in France and some money for drawings. At the same time, Picasso became acquainted with collectors from different countries - by Russian merchant Sergey Shchukin, German Estet without special activities by Wilhelm Ude and Americans Herret and Leo Stein, writer and pianist. Brother and Sister Stuna helped Pablo to get out of poverty, generously paying for his work. Stunny and introduced Picasso with Henri Matisse, which turned out to be extremely significant for the young master. True, communication was for Pablo somewhat traumatic: the free and confident Matisse pronounced the most sponsored monologues, and Picasso, who spoke poorly in French, could only agree to alone. He also appeared with an eccentric buddy of playwright Alfred Zharry, an amaster of absinthe, ether and shooting. He always wore a pistol in his pocket and a cafe shot friends who considered it too sober. One day, his weapon was taken away and ... given Picasso. That, however, did not justify confidence, because I used a gun with the same extravagance as the former owner. Thank God, cost no excesses.

Thanks to the generosity of Staynov on May 20, 1906, Picasso, together with Fernanda Olivier, went on a trip to Spain and stopped in a small village Gosol in Catalan Pyrenees. A new period of his creative quest began.

Acrobat and young harlequin 1905

"Blue" and "pink" periods in the work of the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso is the time of formation of an individual style of the artist. At this time, there is a departure from impressionism, inheritance stylistics Toulouse-Lotrek, Degas and other famous artists.

"Blue" period (1901-1904)

Self-portrait. 1901.

He received its name due to the total tonality of paintings made in a blue-blue gamma, united by the mood of despair and loneliness. Some of the first works of this period were "Self-portrait" (1901) and "Absinthe Lovers" (1901). Most of the heroes of Picasso pictures are representatives of the lower layers of society, disadvantaged, patients or vicious people. Among the later "blue" works it is worth noting the paintings of the Women's Head (1902-1903), "Breakfast of the Blind" (1903), "Old Jew with a boy" (1903), "Gladiller" (1904). In aesthetic attitude, it is important to transition to new ways of image, an exception from the composition of unnecessary parts, and a number of other solutions that allow us to focus the attention of the viewer on the emotions caused by the picture. At the same time, the Picasso is impossible to fully consider these works in general, because They partially used motives and techniques characteristic of Spanish painting. The formation of such an emotional attitudes of the paintings was greatly influenced by the vital realities. The beginning of the "blue" period is associated with the suicide of a close friend of the artist Carlos Casaagemas in 1901. The proximity of death, loneliness, forced return to Barcelona in 1903 due to lack of funds influenced the depressiveness of the paintings.

"Girl on a bowl" - balance between life and death

Girl on the Ball. 1905.

This picture, written in 1905, is a characteristic work of the transition period. The time when pain, despair and suffering in the artist's paintings are gradually leaving, they are replaced by interest in living human joys, the personification of which is circuschi and artists. The content of this product built on contrasts (movement and static, girl and the athlete, ease and severity, etc.), it is quite consistent with the symbolism of the transition between the bitterness of death and the joys of life.

"Pink" period (1904 - 1906)

The gradual transition to the "pink" period in the work was marked by 1904, when there were positive changes in the life of the artist: moving to the kicking center of avant-garde life - in the hostel of artists on Montmartre, love in Fernanda Olivier, acquaintance with many interesting people, among whom were Matisse and Gertrude Stein. The Comedians of the Circus Medrano become the main topic of the work of this period, made of pink, red, pearl colors. Pictures are distinguished by a variety of scenes, dynamics and movement. At the same time, the artist continues to develop an individual style formed in the "blue" period. By this time, the works of "Acrobat and young harlequin" (1905), "Family of Comedians" (1905), "Jester" (1905), etc. At the end of the "Pink" Periora in Picasso's paintings, images inspired by antique myths appear: "Girl With a goat "(1906)," Boy, Leading Horse "(1906), manifests interest in the image of the naked nature" Bearing "(1906), a naked boy (1906).
