More quotes by Pablo Picasso
An artist must be very careful not to look for models. As soon as one artist takes another as model, he is lost. There is no other point of departure than reality.
Pablo Picasso
I hate that aesthetic game of the eye and the mind, played by these connoisseurs, these mandarins who appreciate beauty. What is beauty, anyway? There's no such thing. I never appreciate, any more than I like. I love it or I hate.
Pablo Picasso
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.
Pablo Picasso
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
Pablo Picasso
Art is never chaste. It ought to be forbidden to ignorant innocents, never allowed into contact with those not sufficiently prepared. Yes, art is dangerous. Where it is chaste, it is not art.
Pablo Picasso
Style is often something which locks the painter into the same vision, the same technique, the same formula during years and years, sometimes during one's whole lifetime.
Pablo Picasso
The quality of a painter depends on the amount of past he carries with him.
Pablo Picasso
Enough of Art. It's Art that kills us. People no longer want to do painting: they make art.
Pablo Picasso
I'd like to live like a poor man with a lot of money.
Pablo Picasso
I don't say everything, but I paint everything.
Pablo Picasso
I am a communist and my painting is a communist painting. But if I were a shoemaker, Royalist or Communist or anything else, I would not necessarily hammer my shoes in any special way to show my politics.
Pablo Picasso
Anything new, anything worth doing, can't be recognized.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Pablo Picasso
For my part, I can't do anything else but what I am doing.
Pablo Picasso
You see these thick curtains shut out the daylight: artificial light suits me a great deal better it's absolutely steady, and much more exciting.
Pablo Picasso
Why assume that to look is to see?
Pablo Picasso
There ought to be an absolute dictatorship... a dictatorship of painters... a dictatorship of one painter... to suppress all those who have betrayed us.
Pablo Picasso
To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
Pablo Picasso
Forcing yourself to use restricted means is the sort of restraint that liberates invention. It obliges you to make a kind of progress that you can't even imagine in advance.
Pablo Picasso
If it's good, it's mine. If it's bad, it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
