More quotes by Pablo Picasso
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
Pablo Picasso
I understand my own pictures best six months after I have done them.
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
It takes a long time to become young.
Pablo Picasso
I would like to manage to prevent people from ever seeing how a picture of mine has been done. What can it possibly matter? What I want is that the only thing emanating from my pictures should be emotion.
Pablo Picasso
My friends back in Barcelona called me by that name (Picasso). It was stranger, more resonant, than Ruiz. And those are probably the reasons I adopted it. Do you know what appealed to me about that name? Well, it was undoubtedly the double s, which is fairly unusual in Spain.
Pablo Picasso
While I am working I am not conscious of what I am putting on the canvas.
Pablo Picasso
Computers are useless - all they can give you are answers.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a lie that makes us realise truth ... that is given us to understand.
Pablo Picasso
Rhythm is a perception of time... when drawing, the tiredness of the hand is a rhythm.
Pablo Picasso
The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.
Pablo Picasso
Museums are just a lot of lies, and the people who make art their business are mostly imposters. We have infected the pictures in museums with all our stupidities, all our mistakes, all our poverty of spirit. We have turned them into petty and ridiculous things.
Pablo Picasso
I do things I don't know how to do in order to learn how to do them.
Pablo Picasso
Cubism is not a reality you can take in your hand. It's more like a perfume, in front of you, behind you, to the sides, the scent is everywhere but you don’t quite know where it comes from.
Pablo Picasso
Whether he wants it or not, man is the instrument of nature she imposes on him character and appearance.
Pablo Picasso
We have a lot of reasons but only one real one.
Pablo Picasso
Age only matters when one is aging. Now that I have arrived at a great age, I might as well be twenty.
Pablo Picasso
To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
Pablo Picasso
Art is not truth art is the lie which makes us see the truth.
Pablo Picasso
Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing?
Pablo Picasso
