41So what one thing INTERESTING happened to you in the last 24 hours.....
by ScoobySnax inok freeze frame today.......out of all the interactions with others and goings-on, was there anything remotely interesting that happened to you today?
today is probably a typical day, in your probable and predictable all too short life.... this 24 hours was probably similar to yesterday and maybe similar to tommorow.
but i want to know what was the most interesting thing that happened personally to you.

Here's some background info on that "crappy mural":

Picasso's work did evolve throughout his lifetime and he proved his expert talent at all genres (Impressionism, Realism, Classicist, Modern, Abstract) and even created genres (Cubism).
IMO, It is a bit of a generalization to label his entire body of work as crap based on one phase that doesn't resonate with you as a viewer. But to each their own .... one of the beautiful things about art is that there is something for everyone.

well, the most interesting thing that happened to me in the last 24 hours was meeting you in chat ScoobySnax! (hoping it helps to suck up to the thread poster in order to win the prize??)
other than that, I have been lazy all day since A) haven't felt too good and B)I am working tomorrow...laid about in bed all day - alone (pity) so very little opportunity for something truly interesting to happen since the aforementioned occurrence!

Great quotes to contemplate, Phantom. Here are some more to ponder when it comes to the meaning of art, or if it should mean anything at all:
"The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery." ~ Francis Bacon
"The function of Art is to disturb. Science reassures." ~ George Braque
"A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art." ~ Paul Cézanne
"To become truly immortal, a work of art must escape all human limits: logic and commonsense will only interfere. But once these barriers are broken, it will enter the realms of childhood visions and dreams." ~ Giorgio DeChirico
"Painting is easy for those that do not know how, but very difficult for
those that do!" ~ Edgar Degas"To create one's own world in any of the arts takes courage." ~ Georgia O'Keeffe
"Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life." ~ Henry Miller
What would the world, and life be without art in all forms produced by artists brave enough to listen to no one but themselves? ~ bisous (kimberlee)

hmmmm....well let's see
founded the Cubist movement with Georges Braque
lived 91 years, produced works of art beginning at the age of 8 till death
largest, most vigorous, creative and diverse output in the history of the artworld
was always one step ahead of his contemporaries in taking art forms to the next level
is the one name that stands out in the 20th century artworld, arguably the strongest influence on genre
Accomplishments include styles of the Blue and Rose Periods, analytic and synthetic cubism, the classicist phase of the Twenties and formal experiments during the Thirties, the "two-faced" portraits of lovers and variations on old master paintings and finally - abstraction, in his final years
One of the things i find interesting is how he reapproached some of his former pieces using his Cubism style; this helped me understand and interpret his new direction
He dominated the scene during his life and on.
You should investigate him a little further, Elsewhere, instead of trying to understand his work from one visit to a show. I think you'd find his life and history quite fascinating. He was quite a character outside of his art, very macho and a typically Spanish male (from his time).
We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth, at least the truth that is given to us to understand
