Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Pablo Picasso
-Art is the elimination of the unnecessary.
-Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.
-Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
-Everything you can imagine is real.
-God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant and the cat. He has no real style, He just goes on trying other things.
-I don’t own any of my own paintings because a Picasso original costs several thousand dollars and that’s a luxury I cannot afford.
-No, painting is not made to decorate apartments. It’s an offensive and defensive weapon against the enemy.
-Painting is a blind man’s profession. He paints not what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen.
-The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.
-We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Pablo Picasso
When I was the age of these children could draw like Raphael: it took me many years to learn how to draw like these children.
Pablo Picasso
Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.
