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?

Image
In art intentions are not sufficient and, as we say in Spanish, love must be proved by deeds and not by reasons. What one does is what counts and not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.

Image
One cannot be a sorcerer all the time. How could one live?
Pablo Picasso
Image
Something sacred, that's it. We ought to be able to say that such and such a painting is as it is, with its capacity for power, because it is touched by God.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The artist spends the first part of his life with the dead, the second with the living, and the third with himself.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To me there is no past or future in my art. If a work of art cannot live always in the present it must not be considered at all. The art of the Greeks, of the Egyptians, of the great painters who lived in other times, is not an art of the past perhaps it is more alive today than it ever was.

Computers are stupid.

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
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
Image
Every now and then one paints a picture that seems to have opened a door and serves as a stepping stone to other things.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a finger up the bourgeoisie ass.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The only thing that's important is the legend created by the picture, and not whether it continues to exist itself.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The secret of many of my deformations - which many people do not understand - is that there is an interaction, an intereffect between the lines in a painting: one line attracts the other and at the point of maximum attraction the lines curve in toward the attracting point and form is altered.
Pablo Picasso
Image
It is personality with a penny's worth of talent. Error which chances to rise above the commonplace.
Pablo Picasso
Image
What one does is what counts. Not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a lie that makes us realise truth ... that is given us to understand.

Image
To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.

Why do you try to understand art? Do you try to understand the song of a bird?
