More quotes by Pablo Picasso
Photography has arrived at the point where it is capable of liberating painting from all literature, from the anecdote, and even from the subject. In any case, a certain aspect of the subject now belongs to the domain of photography. So shouldn't painters profit from their newly acquired liberty, and make use of it to do other things?
Pablo Picasso
The people no longer seek consolation in art. But the refined people, the rich, the idlers seek the new, the extraordinary, the extravagant, the scandalous.
Pablo Picasso
What is a face, really? Its own photo? Its make-up? Or is it a face as painted by such or such painter? That which is in front? Inside? Behind? And the rest? Doesn't everyone look at himself in his own particular way? Deformations simply do not exist.
Pablo Picasso
Good designers copy great designers steal.
Pablo Picasso
When the individuality of the artist begins to express itself, what the artist gains in the way of liberty he loses in the way of order.
Pablo Picasso
One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite - that particular peach is but a detail.
Pablo Picasso
The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.
Pablo Picasso
Almost every evening, either I went to [Georges] Braque's studio or Braque came to mine. Each of us had to see what the other had done during the day. We criticized each other's work. A canvas wasn't finished unless both of us felt it was.
Pablo Picasso
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
Pablo Picasso
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.
Pablo Picasso
Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist.
Pablo Picasso
The quality of a painter depends on the amount of past he carries with him.
Pablo Picasso
What do you think an artist is? ...he is a political being, constantly aware of the heart breaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image. Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.
Pablo Picasso
Painting isn't an aesthetic operation it's a form of magic designed as mediator between this strange hostile world and us.
Pablo Picasso
The fingerprints of the god who amused himself fashioning them - I can see them on any bone whatsoever.
Pablo Picasso
As far as I am concerned, a painting speaks for itself. What is the use of giving explanations, when all is said and done? A painter has only one language.
Pablo Picasso
Formerly pictures used to move towards completion in progressive stages. Each day would bring something new. A picture was a sum of additions. With me, picture is a sum of destructions. I do a picture, then I destroy it. But in the long run nothing is lost the red that I took away from one place turns up somewhere else.
Pablo Picasso
Disciples be damned. It's not interesting. It's only the masters that matter. Those who create.
Pablo Picasso
Art isn't done to decorate apartments, but to wage war against the enemy.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a finger up the bourgeoisie ass.
Pablo Picasso
