Picasso ceramics edit

I have removed most of the section on Picasso ceramics because it is original research and completely unreferenced. The deleted text is below, in case anyone can put it back with reliable sources.

'With ceramics, Picasso expresses any kind of feelings, especially joy. On the one hand, because the Second World War had ended and on the other hand because of his two children's (Claudia and Paloma) birth. This feeling is perceived in human faces smiling and because of the presence of animals (simple and schematic compositions and the use of primary colors)[original research?].'

Spanish & Catalan nationality edit

There is the potential for an interesting section on the role of nationalism in the building of this museum. I don't know much about the history, but it appears that the architect and architectural plans were changed during Miguel Primo de Rivera's time in power. A major concern was whether Catalan or Spain would take center stage in the village. I don't think that I can write this section because I don't speak Spanish or Catalan, but it seems like an interesting illustration of the politics of the time.
