[Picasso] loved..women for the sexual, carnivorous impulses they aroused in him. Mixing blood and sperm, he exalted women in his paintings, imposed his violence on them, and sentenced them to death once he felt their mystery had been discharged and the sexual power they instilled in him had dulled.. Women were his prey. He was the Minotaur. These were bloody, indecent bullfights from which he always emerged the dazzling victor.Marina Picasso
About This Quote
Pablo Picasso was a great artist. He knew how to capture the beauty of the world around him. However, he also understood the carnality of women. He understood that women are beautiful creatures with an inner beauty that is often masked by their outer beauty. Through his work, he teaches us that women are more than just beautiful, they are beautiful because they are beautiful, and beautiful because they are sexual beings, which is why he would paint them as such.
