Picasso's War

Picasso’s Guernica depicts the suffering wrought by a German bombing in 1937 during the Spanish Civil War.  Three years later, when the artist was living in Nazi-occupied Paris, a Gestapo officer saw a photo of the painting in his apartment.

“Did you do that?” he asked.

“No,” Picasso said. “You did.”

I really admire the eye of the photographer. Well some photographers. More recently been following the work of Timothy Allen. Being able to perceive anything in the complex world around is a critical skill for the 21st Century. To be able to tell story that resonates, see the truth in a tornado of input - priceless. take a look at his work and support the craft of people like Timothy. We need these skills back in the mainstream to remove the appalling results of our dumbed down social systems! (i Think!)
