Picassoed

Since the Art Gallery of NSW has brought some of Picasso's masterpieces from the Musee National Picasso Paris to Sydney, i thought now is as good a time as any to upload my own little piece of abstraction.

I'm hoping this exhibition will enhance my appreciation of the genre.

I find that Picasso's work, in a nutshell, to be very much revolutionary, and lets face it the world would be a different place without many forms of abstract art.

However, in saying that, i do not find it my favourite artistic platform.

For Picasso being a firm staple as one of the most influential artist of the 20th Century, i feel somewhat guilty saying such things. (Popular society tends to do that). But alas, I am not an art critic and have never claimed to be. I am in no position to be making judgement calls and outlandish statements that some might misconstrue as what i am saying as being a 'hater'. A hater i am not, but we all have our favourites, and this style - albeit with all due respect - is just not one of them.

I do hope this exhibition whets my appetite to embrace it more than i do presently.

Would be interested to hear from any Galerians to share their P.O.V's to help me on this journey - as you all know i relish to be educated with a difference perspective.

Love L.V.
