How this 22 year old artist made millions: • How This 22 Year Old A...
In this video, we explore the intriguing paradox of Pablo Picasso's childlike artworks that sell for millions. How is it possible that these simplistic drawings command such high prices? Dive deep into Picasso's journey, from his early days as a prodigy in Spain to his challenging yet transformative years in Paris.
Picasso once doodled on a napkin in a bar while reflecting on the harsh critiques of his art. When a woman offered to buy this simple drawing for $5,000, Picasso remarked, "It took me 1 minute to make, but a lifetime to be able to make it in one minute." Despite such profound skill, the question arises: do you really need a lifetime of experience to create these childlike pieces?
We return to Spain, where Picasso's father warned him that mere talent was insufficient without recognition. Moving to Paris at 19, Picasso faced extreme hardships, illustrating that talent alone doesn't guarantee success. During his depressive 'Blue Period', he met a gallery owner who used cunning sales tactics to elevate Picasso's reputation, leading to his breakthrough in the art world.
This video also speculates on the mysterious subject of one of Picasso's significant works and discusses how art market dynamics often overshadow pure artistic skill.

My position on Picasso: he had ability and he had imagination. He took chances and it paid off. He didn't show the Demoiselles of Avignon for a long time, even hid it away. He could have given up, but didn't.

Yes he had every right to be afraid I guess. Egon Schiele went to prison for too much nudity so...

Why does struggle make such good stories? This world seems to be run by pain...I wrote my best poems in pain. Painted pain etc but always with hope represented. I left a lot of my paintings with other people I never talk to anymore. Thank you for your videos.

A work encapsulating pain can act quite like that flash of memory your brain produces. A fleeting moment. Much easier for the intovert artist to dwell in it, adore it. And all is fine unleashing it. The buyer pays for what their mind lacks. All is fine seeing it. In other words owning the moment mimics living the moment.

@driesketels it reminds me of the speech Samwise gave to Frodo in Lord of the Rings. Frodo: I can’t do this, Sam. Sam: I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something. Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam? Sam: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo… and it’s worth fighting for.” Sorry for wall of text 😊

I think with the invention of photography, artists like Monet and Picasso had to change to a more abstract style. Picasso is part of many art movements and genres, something very rare in any artist. Picasso was an incredible artist and a founding father of Abstract art

@nickyperryman2683 2 месяца назад

I don’t agree that Picasso couldn’t draw. That’s just not true.

@driesketels 2 месяца назад

Depends on your requirements. Do we have an uber realistic drawing of Picasso? Would Picasso be in the top 5000 best painters/drawers in the world from a perspective of skill alone?

@nickyperryman2683 2 месяца назад

@@driesketels his early work where he did realistic portraits of family for example in the painting Science and Charity show that he could draw very well even as a teenager. The figures created in the Rose and Blue period paintings show an excellent understanding of the human form and are hardly childlike in their rendition. Whether he is in the top 10 or whatever is for debate. But the video thumbnail says that he couldn’t draw and that is clearly not true.

@cynthiamarston2208 2 месяца назад

He can draw. Many people have questioned this and followed up to watch video while he is drawing well instead of stylizing. I should never read biographies and such about artists personal lives. Most the time I get turned off

@nicolasb.henry294 2 месяца назад

Picasso, Warhol, Basquiat, Dali Miles Davis and Bowie are my favorite artists when it comes to communication and marketing those 4 men wrere the best. By the way your videos are excellent and as growing artist myself I like the way you explain art.

sad art. Never liked his work. I understand he revolutionised the art world but it never did anything for me. When I went to Barcelona the line for his Museum was wrapped around the building. And across from it was a MEAMS gallery. Had way more fun in the MEAMS gallery

Thanks Dries for the video. A titch too long, but ok! Besides the bad works, (appart from the blue period), Picasso was an awful human. He shouldn't have gotten so much attention. A horrible, violent misogynist, perverted narc, and pedophile. A woman hater, was very nasty to all his partners, and his children as his grandchildren didn't mean much to him. He used some of them, yes, to make drawings he sold!! A grandchild wrote a book (2017), describing her life in the Picasso home, in all honesty but without hatred on her behalf. It was awful, and she is still traumatised. But, at least she inherited millions she can spend, now!! Ugh, he was an awful human being, and I relate it with his bad works. Not worth mentioning! 😔
