Topic: Picasso or Dali? Posted: June 11 2006 at 11:56 |
I was thinking how different these two artists are.
Also, I had a thought..
I like Neo, Prog Metal, Hard Rock and some Symph and Art Rock, and I prefer Dali.
Maybe those who like other genres (Kraut, Electronic etc) prefer Picasso?

I don't really know anything about art, but based on what I've seen I definitely choose Dali.

I like prog-metal, post-rock, and experimental music, but I prefer Dali. He has been my favorite artist ever since i can remember liking art.

I may be the only one but I prefer Picasso. This guy has done everything and has improved everything. I study history of arts at school and there's no doubt Picasso is a genius.

Picasso. Though Dali may be the more obvious "prog" choice!

Wow, surprising to see so many Dali fans here (as opposed to Picasso that is). To repeat the (now) cliche... my favorite painter, indeed.
The very best reference book you can get is the thick black one with gold print on the front, simply titled "Dali". Has EVERYTHING, and mostly in acceptable size.

Picasso by a mile, simply because he invented many of the techniques
that are quite common among artists today. Many may think Picasso
could not paint because of the way he distorts shapes sometimes; I
advise them to have a look at the drawing of "Don Quijote and Sancho
Pansa"; you couldn't have drawn it any better, nor with less lines.
Dali was a charlatan. One genius of a charlatan, but a charlatan
nevertheless. Of course his paintings are often so-called
"surrealistic" (though the Surrealists themselves kicked him out pretty
soon), which has a lot of appeal among proggers.
