More quotes by Pablo Picasso

Image
When you see what you express through photography, you realize all the things that can no longer be the objectives of painting. Why should an artist persist in treating subjects that can be established so clearly with the lens of a camera?
Pablo Picasso
Image
I try to paint what I have found and not what I look for. In art, intentions are of little importance.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The best calculation is the absence of calculation. Once you have attained a certain level of recognition, others generally figure that when you do something, it's for an intelligent reason. So it's really foolish to plot out your movements too carefully in advance. You're better off acting capriciously.

There's nothing worse than a brilliant beginning.
Pablo Picasso
Image
One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite - that particular peach is but a detail.
Pablo Picasso
Image
By amusing myself with all these games, all this nonsense, all these picture puzzles, I became famous... I am only a public entertainer who has understood his time.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Now there is fame! Of all - hunger, misery, the incomprehension by the public - fame is by far the worst. It is the castigation of God by the artist. It is sad. It is true.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Drawing is a kind of hypnotism: one looks in such a way at the model, that he comes and takes a seat on the paper.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The revolutionary artist does not only focus on the negative aspects of capitalist lives, but also creates visions of a revolutionary future.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
Nature does many things the way I do, but she hides them!
Pablo Picasso
Image
Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?
Pablo Picasso
Image
I want to get to the stage where nobody can tell how a picture of mine is done. What's the point of that? Simply that I want nothing but emotion given off by it.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Action is the foundation of all success.
Pablo Picasso
Image
From the point of view of art, there are no concrete or abstract forms, but only forms which are more or less convincing lies.

Paradise is to love many things with a passion.

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist while still achieving milestones and outcomes as required by certain funders and policy-makers.
