In Reply to: Picasso...the overrated hack? posted by tinear on April 14, 2002 at 09:03:13:
I took a few great art courses at Princeton, one of which was a modern art course covering such greats as Picasso. I appreciated his contributions but always felt he was given way too much credit. I never thought any of his work was outstanding and felt he was given such praise mostly for a concept. I certainly don't think I was out of line calling him an overrated hack -- that's how I see it. In a hundred years, maybe the pseudo intellectuals will see the emperors clothes for what they are.I do enjoy art. Van Gogh has always been my favorite and the Van Gogh museum in amsterdam my favorite museum.
