The "Objectivity" of essence



Hi ...,

I think even Picasso is an aspect of objective reality with all his subjectivity and that is what needs to be grasped to stop disqualifying human beings for no matter what reason. We all carry light and darkness within our selves and no matter how dark some things seem, if we forget the light we all carry within we justify our acts of disqualification and that is not consciousness or humaneness or life or love.

The men in Picasso's times and age are not too different to the men today. If we look at that kind of "masculinity" as a phenomenon to be worked on rather than a malady to be pointed at and disqualified, then we are looking at the problem objectively and not subjectively. The subjectivity of "Picasso" hardly matters when you want to look at phenomenon objectively.

There is a "life" in Picasso's works that if that is not objectivity, allow me to keep myself endlessly subjective and not ban me for it. The Art of our times is no less objective no matter how subjective its artists might be. In as much as we can see Art as the objective expression of our subjective state, we can recognize the different degrees of conscious objectivity in the artist but can NEVER disqualify the essence of the artist. Essence is a human reality as objective as the spirit. So is false personality for that matter. No matter how false, false personality might be, the "objective reality" of that individual is that he or she is in a process in which his or her false personality is predominant. These are just phases of development and NO ONE on this earth should be disqualified because of it. We are not here to judge and disqualify each other but to hold each other like friends and family and children and brothers and sisters and parents and human beings. And help each other every step of the way no matter how many times we've fallen or fall.

I'm passionate about this my friend, but mean you no harm. Let Picasso be Picasso that we don't loose any of our selves in the way. He has spoken for the soul of his times better than many. It does us no harm to hear what he had to say.
