Quote

I consider a work of art as a product of calculations, calculations that are frequently unknown to the author himself.

Image
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.
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
An artist must be very careful not to look for models. As soon as one artist takes another as model, he is lost. There is no other point of departure than reality.
Pablo Picasso
Image
There is only one way to see things, until someone shows us how to look at them with different eyes
Pablo Picasso
Image
I never calculate. That is why those who do, calculate so much less accurately than I.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If you are a genius and unsuccessful, everybody treats you as if you were a genius, but when you come to be successful, when you commence to earn money, when you are really successful, then your family and everybody no longer treats you like a genius, they treat you like a man who has become successful.
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
Whether he wants it or not, man is the instrument of nature she imposes on him character and appearance.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If only we could pull out our brain and use only our eyes.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If I don't have red, I use blue.
Pablo Picasso
Image
For my part, I can't do anything else but what I am doing.
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
If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
Pablo Picasso
Image
What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
Image
You mustn't expect me to repeat myself. My past doesn't interest me. I would rather copy others than copy myself. In that way I should at least be giving them something new. I love discovering things.
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
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
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
