Good morning @avdesing. Despite your excellent presentation of the exhibition, highlighting Picasso's creativity and imagination, I consider Dalí and Picasso (not to single out Picasso alone) to be the two biggest frauds of the 20th century. That said, I also consider them two enormous geniuses who anticipated contemporary art, where the brand matters more than the artwork itself.

Both knew how to create a brand, where the work acquires value through the signature and not its artistic merit. In Picasso's case, he was also so clever that he copied the fashion world. What was popular last year is no longer relevant this year... or in other words... a new "stage" would appear, and collectors would buy the new works.

I'm probably wrong. I know artists who admire Picasso... I find him boring... and this exhibition, which you've presented so well, despite your words, only reaffirms my opinion...

Anyway, thank you very much for the presentation of the exhibition, for your lack of prejudice, and for your effort in understanding the work. It's always a pleasure to read you.

Big hug. Happy Sunday!!

I’ll always discuss the artwork without referring, for example, to the artist’s personal life, as I told nanixxx… and knowing a lot about Dalí’s work—and even though I love his art—I know that much of it was painted by his apprentices and not by him personally; he just signed it, and that doesn’t seem right to me. That’s why it’s not his work, no matter how much his signature is there. That’s why, when it comes to Dalí… I’ll just leave it at that. I love the artwork; it fascinates me, but he didn’t paint most of it—something few people know.

I was introduced to surrealism by a Russian artist—I’ve never mentioned his name, and he’s my favorite. It’s a shame I’ve never seen an exhibition of his work; I hope to someday!

I don't want to upset the people of Malaga any further, although I believe that without the Cold War, neither Picasso nor Dalí would have stood out in the art world, especially considering the quality and creativity of many contemporary and earlier artists. Regarding the Russian artist, I'm going to take a guess, although I'm sure I'll be wrong: Marc Chagall.

No me molesta para nada, es algo que se sabe poco, pero cuando comencé a estudiar con un canal de arte me llevé la desagradable noticia que Dalí no hacía sus cuadros, que decepción... entonces me gustan los cuadros de sus aprendices no de él jajaja

No, no es ese artista🤣
