Cubism is still the most important art movement for the same reason that John D. is still the most important Rockefeller.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think cubism has not fully been developed. It is treated like a style, pigeonholed and that's it.
Cubism was an attack on the perspective that had been known and used for 500 years. It was the first big, big change. It confused people: they said, 'Things don't look like that!'
I think music has gone through a period of something very severe, rather radical, rather the way painting did with cubism.
I think Picasso was, without doubt, the greatest portraitist of the 20th century, if not any other century.
Now that we do not have priests and philosophers any more, artists are the most important people in the world.
Cubism is like standing at a certain point on a mountain and looking around. If you go higher, things will look different; if you go lower, again they will look different. It is a point of view.
I think there are a lot more important things than art in the world. But not to me.
Style is the most valuable asset of the modern artist. That's probably why so many styles are reported lost or stolen each year.
Rockefeller viewed his philanthropy through the lens of his business, and it really mirrored the Industrial Revolution. It was highly centralized, it was top down, it was based on experts, and it was big-picture.
Any form of art is a form of power; it has impact, it can affect change - it can not only move us, it makes us move.
