As a co-founder of Cubism, his global fame was born from fractured perspectives and autobiographical themes that reached new audiences with a never-before-seen style that simultaneously amplified his celebrity. His genius was never restrained by any particular movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #333; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eHis storied career began with at home instruction, followed by a formal academic education in Spain before moving to the global creative epicenter of Paris, France. Following the introspective melancholy of his retreat to Barcelona at the start of the 20th-century, as expressed in his Blue Period, Picasso returned to Paris to solidify his place at the forefront of the avant-garde for the next 70 years. With critical success came the freedom to experiment across every conceivable medium. He frequently used his formative works on paper as prototypes, or studies, for his masterpieces on canvas, making his graphic works an essential record of his creative process. Picasso's artistic achievements and celebrity status were, and forever will be, unmatched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"popup-h3\"\u003ePicasso and his Graphic Works\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #333; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003ePicasso famously viewed his printmaking as a \"personal diary,\" a medium through which he explored the continuous metamorphosis of his creative vision. Over his seven decade career, he produced more than 2,400 works across every conceivable graphic medium.
