Quote

When I enter the studio, I leave my body at the door the way the Moslems leave their shoes when they enter the mosque, and I only allow my spirit to go in there and paint.

When they say that I am too old to make a thing, I try to make it immediately.
Pablo Picasso
Image
You see these thick curtains shut out the daylight: artificial light suits me a great deal better it's absolutely steady, and much more exciting.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The quality of a painter depends on the amount of past he carries with him.
Pablo Picasso

When it comes right down to it, all you have is your self. Your Self is a sun with a thousand rays.
Pablo Picasso

Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If I were to sign it now, I'd be committing forgery. I'd be putting my 1943 signature on a canvas painted in 1922.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Museums are just a lot of lies, and the people who make art their business are mostly imposters. We have infected the pictures in museums with all our stupidities, all our mistakes, all our poverty of spirit. We have turned them into petty and ridiculous things.

Image
My friends back in Barcelona called me by that name (Picasso). It was stranger, more resonant, than Ruiz. And those are probably the reasons I adopted it. Do you know what appealed to me about that name? Well, it was undoubtedly the double s, which is fairly unusual in Spain.
Pablo Picasso
Image
People want Art. And they are given it. But the less Art there is in painting the more painting there is.

I imitate everyone except myself.

I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.
