Image
Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, or the painter?
Pablo Picasso
Image
Good taste is the enemy of creativity.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When they say that I am too old to make a thing, I try to make it immediately.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I am always making that what I am not capable, in an attempt to learn how to doing it.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I must keep on trying, just to keep the experiment going until I get tired of it all. Even if the last result is not necessarily the best, I stop when my interest in the problem wanes.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To model an object is to possess it.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If everybody is looking for it, then nobody is finding it. If we were cultured, we would not be conscious of lacking culture. We would regard it as something natural and would not make so much fuss about it. And if we knew the real value of this word we would be cultured enough not to give it so much importance.
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
When you start with a portrait and try to find pure form by abstracting more and more, you must end up with an egg.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Abstract art is only painting. And what's so dramatic about that? There is no abstract art. One must always begin with something. Afterwards one can remove all semblance of reality there is no longer any danger as the idea of the object has left an indelible imprint.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a lie that makes us realise truth ... that is given us to understand.
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
The essential in this time of moral poverty is to create enthusiasm.
Pablo Picasso
Image
No doubt, it is useful for an artist to know all the forms of art which have preceded or which accompany his. That is a sign of strength if it is a question of looking for a stimulus or recognizing mistakes he must avoid.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We have a lot of reasons but only one real one.
Pablo Picasso
Image
There's no such thing as a bad Picasso, but some are less good than others.
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
People want to find a 'meaning' in everything and everyone. That's the disease of our age...
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.
