Picasso was clearly insane if he thought his paintings represented reality.

Only a satantically diseased mind could could so so distort and disfigure humanity in "art".

You wrote, "Only a satantically diseased mind could could so so distort and disfigure humanity in "art"."

Does that mean Picasso was unduly influenced by the guitarist, Carlos Santana, who used his amazing powers of time travel to somehow sway the great painter with a rendition of 'Black Magic Woman'? Wow. Who knew?

He didn't. He loathed reality and had even more contempt for the human form. He was a talented man, but he wasted it on his nonsense abstract cubism (savage primitivism). You want to see a real cubist, see the works of Max Weber.

That's amazing. I saw almost exactly the same commentary a few years ago at a re-creation of the "Entartete Kunst" exhibit, when it was here in Washington.
