About the Pi-Cow-So "School for the Arts" cow sculpture
This brightly colored cow sculpture is the exact reproduction of the original-size cow featured at the Harrisburg CowParade exhibit in 2004. It features a large cow grazing. The artist Allison Mushalko drew inspiration from Pablo Picasso painting work and cubism influence. This Pi-COW-So "School for the Arts" represents Capital Area School for the Arts, and its 2003/2004 school year theme War and Peace". The cow sculpture is part of the CowParade figurines Museum Edition. It comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a soft dust bag.
Pablo Picasso was a Spanish painter and sculptor, who remains one of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century. He is mostly recognized for the Cubist movement, which he co-founded with Georges Braque. Eventually, his masterpiece Guernica is a pivotal example of this.
Firstly, Guernica displays the intense horror of the Spanish civil war and its impact on the city of Guernica. Then, Pablo's exceptional style helped the world understand the horrors of the war. Finally, it also brought Spain into the forefront of the European mind.
Through Cubism, Picasso showed the world how two-dimensional art could be seen in a number of ways. The dimensions and angles are an abstraction of all the essential features of a scene with only their base shapes. Picasso's style transpires his free spirit, eccentricity, and a complete disregard for any criticism of his work. In addition, this modern approach to painting far ahead of his time supported Picasso’s indelible impact on the art world to this very day.
