(they have picasso's "gertrude stein", which made me giddy) what a horrible painting! oh no you didn't... does someone live close enough to this child to drive over there and slap him?

C'mon. It's not even that good. Picasso is one of those horribly over-bloated artists that have their farts worshipped just because of their name.

if you understood anything about that painting, you would know why it is set up to be the first image you see upon entering the modern area of the Met
true, not all of picasso's work was great (i personally can't stand at least half of the cubist stuff, and some of the later work). but if he's not the greatest painter in the 20th century (a fact hard to argue), he's at least the most important
