New York Times    The big bad bitterkomix handbook by Anton Kannemeyer; Conrad Botes Quote of the day: El arte es la mentira que nos permite comprender la verdad (Pablo Picasso) art is the lie that makes us realize truth El arte sacude del alma el polvo acumulado en la vida diaria Pablo Picasso Art washes from the soul the dust of everyday life There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality. Pablo Picasso There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into the sun.
