" Bad artists copy. Good artists steal." :D brilliant. I heard this story about Picasso: Once, he revealed one of his latest paintings to a group of experts. It was a blank white canvas. He said it was called Field of Sheep. The experts asked him, How can this be a field? There is no grass. Picasso replied that the sheep had eaten the grass. The experts said, But where are the sheep? Picasso replied, They have left because there is no grass left. The picture was sold for millions of pounds and
Wasn't there another story of Pablo; That he got a monkey, which he gave a pencil and a canvas. The painting was rubbish, but of course, since Pablo signed it under his name, the experts praised the hell out of the painting. Apparently the painting was sold, for a ridiculous amount, upon which Pablo revealed the monkey had made it. Since the experts enjoyed so much the idea of letting a monkey doing it, the acclaim was not changed. Don't know if it's true. Probably not.
Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into the sun. The hidden harmony is better than obvious. Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth. Genius quotes
