Whаt Mаde Picаssо Picassо? Inevitably, the genius mоves to the metropolis or a university. In 1904, Picasso abandoned Spain for Paris, taking up residence in the heights of Montmartre, then a scruffy suburb where progressive artists could live cheaply and look southward down on the rest of humanity. Van Gogh had lived there, and so had the composer Erik Satie. Penurious painters clumped together in a tenement building called the Bateau-Lavoir because it appeared to be just that—a laundry boat. Picasso’s quarters therein were squalid. But “poverty coupled with genius” attended him, said the poet Max Jacob. And so, too, did other artists and their ideas. But what made Picasso Picasso? In a word: imagination. Pretend for a moment that you are watching Picasso paint. Actually, you are urged to do so in the twelve-minute film The Mystery of Picasso (portions available on YouTube). In the film The Mystery of Picasso, the artist starts from an obscure point to draw a bouquet of flowers, which he turns into a fish, and then a rooster, and finally a clown-like cat. Had the camera not run out of film, Picasso’s imaginings could have run on forever--the ultimate flat-line of creativity. Notice, too, his laserlike stare. Many of his contemporaries commented on his Picasso’s intensely focused eyes. Concentration (maybe obsession) is a constant companion of the creative mind. Picasso could stand upright before a painting for three or four hours at a stretch: “I asked him if it didn’t tire him to stand so long in one spot. He shook his head. ‘No,’ he said. ‘That’s why painters live so long. While I work, I leave my body outside the door, the way Muslims take off their shoes before entering the mosque.” Sometimes Picasso is bewitched and sometimes a somnambulist. Gilot mentions the importance of dreams to Picasso, as if these imaginings might account for the strange forms that appear in his mature works: “I dreamed that my legs and arms grew to an enormous size and then shrank back just as much as in the other direction. And all around me, in my dream, I saw other people going through the same transformations, getting huge or very tiny. I felt terribly anguished every time I dreamed about that.” Invention, fantasy, dreams—the power of the imagination differentiates Pablo Picasso. Picasso’s imagination was endlessly inventive, and his capacity to convert his visions into lines and colors was fast and fluent. But without some mystery, there is no genius. What does the word scruffy mean as it is used in the passage?
Other Necessаry but Insufficient Cаuses An extrаоrdinarily vivid imaginatiоn is nоt all that made Picasso a genius. Among his personal characteristics was self-confidence—that is to say, an unswerving belief in the correctness of his vision. Only with self-confidence could Picasso, or any innovator, persevere against indifference, hostility, and outright failure. The dismal public reception accorded Georges Bizet’s Carmen did not cause him to lose faith in what is today perhaps the world’s most popular opera. The first four failed launches of a SpaceX rocket did not dissuade Elon Musk from trying a fifth (successful) one. The perplexed reaction accorded Les demoiselles did not deter Picasso from continuing along the revolutionary path that would lead soon to Cubism. He believed in the semi-magical state of genius and that, because he was one, he was both empowered and protected. Picasso’s self-confidence bordered on the delusional, and it started early, with his mother. “If you become a soldier, you’ll be a general. If you become a monk, you’ll end up as the Pope!” When he was twenty-five, in 1906, Picasso created a masterpiece, his famous portrait of Gertrude Stein. Yet she and her friends were taken aback and said that the portrait didn’t look like her. Picasso’s retort: “Don’t worry, it will.” By this Picasso meant not that Stein would age into her portrait, but rather that he would change the world of artistic perception to the point that his vision would be seen as the vision of what art is supposed to be. Picasso saw himself as, if not God, at least someone who had earned the right to criticize God. “God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant, and the cat. He has no real style. He just keeps on trying other things.” If you believe you cannot fail because you are always right, why not risk everything? A high tolerance for risk is another hallmark of the genius and of Picasso. As he said: “Painting is freedom. If you jump, you might fall on the wrong side of the rope. But if you’re not willing to take the risk of breaking your neck, what good is it? You don’t jump at all. You have to wake people up. To revolutionize their way of identifying things.” This high-risk tolerance applied to his personal life as well. “When I was a child, I could paint like Raphael, but it took me a lifetime to learn to paint like a child.” What specifically did childlike Picasso mean by this? That the child has the capacity to see the simplest and purest of forms, knowing nothing of learned artifice and convention that might disguise truth. Mozart, with his simplest, mature melodies (his Kinderlein he called them), might serve as a model of the sublimely mature child. But child-adult Mozart stayed mostly within the rules of harmony and counterpoint, while child-adult Picasso progressively ignored the rules of realistic representation. Ignoring the rules subverts the rules, but it impels change, which is essential to creativity, which is essential to genius. What does the word dismal mean as it is used in the passage?
