"Picasso, regardless of his unrivaled mastery, does not conform to my tastes at all. Who would say that he is a spiritual artist who sensed the drama of contemporary humans? He searched for harmony in the world's disharmony, but he did not find it. For his insignia is his fragmentation. He painted many of his canvases as well as entire periods with the same model, the same pattern, turning it around invarious shades of light and various levels of foreshortening, as if he wanted to capture the innel presence of man in this world, as if he was following the rhythm of life. He was a sociologist through and through, but he was not spiritual" - Andrei Tarkovsky.
