Guernica is a painting by Pablo Picasso. It was created in response to the bombing of Guernica, a Basque Country village in northern Spain, by German and Italian warplanes at the behest of the Spanish Nationalist forces on 26 April 1937 during the Spanish Civil War.
Guernica shows the tragedies of war and the suffering it inflicts upon individuals, particularly innocent civilians. This work has gained a monumental status, becoming a perpetual reminder of the tragedies of war, an anti-war symbol, and an embodiment of peace. Upon completion, Guernica was displayed around the world in a brief tour, becoming famous and widely acclaimed. This tour helped bring the Spanish Civil War to the world's attention.

Franz Marc - Kämpfende Formen
as an example for the artists of Der Blaue Reiter [hidden image - please register] of course nobody likes all pics of an artist or likes single pics of various artists. so it's difficult to give one or a few names of artists. it's the same as e.g. music or movies, mostly it depends on the mood of the moment. |
