Picasso

My Dear Great Ones,
This week I cultured myself by going to the Heritage Museum in Shatin to check out the Picasso's that they had borrowed from the Picasso museum in Paris.  Whoa whoa.  I know.  Pretty impressive.  Now I had seem some Picasso's in New York when we went to visit Eli so I had an idea what to expect.  Namely weird.  Maybe Picasso is a good artist since he evokes emotion out of me.  Except my emotion is basically disgust.  I think he was rather demented and depressed.  Nevertheless I have included some samples of his paintings from a brochure that I got at the entrance to the art show.  I was not allowed to take pictures at the actual showing.  So without further ado I will let you decide on whether the following is great or just trash.


Not bad if you are a 10 year old grade 5 art student.


Ok not bad.  Face is a little fat and the nose is out of proportion, but not bad for a 17 year old Art 20 student.


This is called,  "woman in an armchair."  Yeah?  It should be called,  "a dog's breakfast."  Not bad if you are a 5 year old Kindergarten student needing special ed.

 
This is called, "Man with a Moustache."  Don't get it.  A  PE teacher with no care or interest or aptitude in art could do this in 5 minutes.  No make it three.  The PE teacher would call it, "rubbish."

Art is in the eye of the beholder.  My eye when I see Picasso says  TRASH.

I think I would make a great art critic.  God bless you all.  Have a great week and Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.

Love adios and peng on!

Dirk
