The Fauvists
liberated color;
the Cubists
liberated shape!

The Art Market

Many times I have railed against the art establishment. Maybe it’s time to hear from another voice.

Here is a video by “Adam Ruins Everything.”

My Picasso “Jacqueline on Horseback after Velazquez” 3/10/59

October 13, 2015

This year I bought a copy of a Picasso Print.
The first thing that comes to mind with Picasso is scary monsters or shattered tormented faces.  This is the other side of his work.  I liked it because its very elegant, but also very busy, colorful, charming, and fresh looking.  It shows his wife Jacqueline as the horse rider in a copy of a painting by Velazquez.

Here is a copy of it, for sale, on ebay. This is the only copy I could find on the net.
