“I do not read English, an English book is a blank book to me. This does not mean that the English language does not exist, and why should I blame anybody else but myself if I cannot understand what I know nothing about?”
— Pablo Picasso, 1923

Picasso, Portrait of Ambroise Vollard, 1909-1910.
“Years of research proved that closed form did not permit an expression sufficient for the two artists’ aims. Closed form accepts objects as contained by their own surfaces, viz. the skin; it then endeavors to represent this closed body, and, since no object is visible without light, to paint this ‘skin’ as the contact point between the body and light where both merge into color.”
— Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, 1920
