Picaso? The artist who backed the socialists in the Spanish civil war? The ‘artist’ who drew unrecognizable ’art’.

Pass the popcorn.

He actually was a good artist, (his works followed good art principles like color mastery, composition, light, dark, contrasts etc) and in his pre wierd period he created some pretty nice conventional art

The truth is Picass WAS a POS when it came to his women. Those relationships also fueled his art.

The same can be said for the Founders. All of them are great men, and a number owned slaves.

Everyone is a sinner. “Separate the sin from the sinner” and “separate the art from the artist” are common phrases.

But there IS a line. Many people dumped the Dixie Chicks, and I’ll never go see Roger Waters.

I’m not an art guy, but I could see Pablo’s communism and treating women like dirt forming that Line.
