What Picasso Said:
An idea is a point of departure and no more. As soon as you elaborate it, it becomes transformed by thought.
Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
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.
Art is the elimination of the unnecessary.
Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.
Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.
Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.
Disciples be damned. It's not interesting. It's only the masters that matter. Those who create.
Every act of creation is first an act of destruction.
Every positive value has its price in negative terms... the genius of Einstein leads to Hiroshima.
Everything is a miracle. It is a miracle that one does not dissolve in one's bath like a lump of sugar.
Everything you can imagine is real.
Give me a museum and I'll fill it.
