i'm so happy to hear this video touch on colonialism. i feel like it is often left out of modern art classes and it's such an important element of the progression of this type of art. another amazing video!

I don’t think either the medical student nor Picasso himself were looking at the women analytically. In my experience, there is no difference between how the painter, the doctor, or the sailor look at women.

The greatest ever, i think so. I really do, seeing it at MoMa was just everything i imagined and more. He was a genius, and everything about this work explains to its audience why he was. I cannot imagine seeing this in 1907 (obviously publicly you couldn't for many years till he decided to actually show it), but it must have just opened people's minds to a new way of depiction, it must have been beyond imaginable for people. Now we look at this work through the lens of today, knowing full well how far art has come both conceptually and perceptionally, but back then this would have meant so much more to onlookers. I can only wish maybe today we again have such a genius to create a work that changes the way we create and interpret in the same manner. Bravo Picasso

Picasso was Spanish?! 🤯 My whole life this man was French, lolol. I've never seen "Woman Ironing," but then I remembered how unfamiliar with his work in general. It's so exciting to finally see what all the fuss is about from a trusted source with ever-amazing commentary. ❤ The pleasures of life are short [and may be shorter if we don't partake in them wisely - thus, the skull and book(?)]. Demoiselles was good vocab for me to pick up today - right on time for my French lessons.

I believe that, in context with the elements discussed here, Picasso was attempting to learn how to create 3-dimensional paintings in order to better market them. Competition within the painting market became tough due to the invention and use of the camera obscura.

In a thesis analysis I did for this painting, perhaps it was Picasso's fear for syphilis, but for the audience is how this painting becomes confrontational and crating a dialogue with the audience, almost as if soliciting. This painting was intended to break the space between the boundaries of classical art, style, and even how the art is viewed and most importantly, the viewer. This is probably how this painting had connotation with danger/confrontation

I guess based on this comments section I am the only person who thinks that this was turning point for the degradation of art.

It is wrong, ultimately, to flatly say that an artist is a "product" of her or his time..... Picasso's interest in African, Iberian and other so-called 'primitive' arts was an act of volition, deliberate, and (apart from Gauguin), almost unprecedented. To see artists as products is to miss how startlingly original they can be (and even more endanger the quietly revealing or alternative notes they can sound) - even while, as here, pointing that originality up. Art historically, one of the surprising things about the pioneering and post Analytic phases of Picasso's Cubism, is how rooted it is in the medieval church art of his native region. This is best viewed at the churches museum in Barcelona.
