Quote

The Parthenon is really only a farmyard over which someone put a roof colonades and sculptures were added because there were people in Athens who happened to be working and wanted to express themselves.

If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I have never made radically different experiments. Whenever I wanted to say something, I said it the way I believed I should.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Paintings are but research and experiment. I never do a painting as a work of art. All of them are researches. I search constantly and there is a logical sequence in all this research.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I'd like to live like a poor man with a lot of money.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a leap into the dark.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We now know that Art is not the truth... but rather a way of approaching the truth.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If you are trying to find something, it means you haven't got it. And if you find it simply by looking for it, that means it's false.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a finger up the bourgeoisie ass.
Pablo Picasso
Image
It is the object which aroused the artist, stimulated his ideas and set of his emotions. These ideas and emotions will be imprisoned in his work for good.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Manifesting takes place from Spirit. It doesn't take place from form, from the physical world. You've got to know that what you want to manifest will occur.
Pablo Picasso
Image
One cannot be a sorcerer all the time. How could one live?
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is not chaste. Those ill prepared should be allowed no contact with art. Art is dangerous. If it is chaste, it is not art.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Every positive value has its price in negative terms... the genius of Einstein leads to Hiroshima.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I don't know in advance what I am going to put on canvas any more than I decide beforehand what colours I am going to use.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To know what you’re going to draw, you have to begin drawing... When I find myself facing a blank page, that’s always going through my head. What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If only we could pull out our brain and use only our eyes.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Different themes inevitably require different methods of expression. This does not imply either evolution or progress it is a matter of following the idea one wants to express and the way in which one wants to express it.
Pablo Picasso
Image
For my part, I can't do anything else but what I am doing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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.

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.
