The value of such a painting is sustained by mutual desire and paid in a generally-agreed-on abstraction called “money”.

No, I find Dali more amusing than great, but my reaction to that portrait is that he likes her. There’s a lot of brutality in many of Picasso’s portraits. He had a habit of picking up mistresses and dropped them. And it’s not surprising that he sometimes portrays himself as a minotaur or bull.

Somehow I don't think I should be taking anything about art serious from someone called “Joe 6-pack”. I would think you would know more about The Velvet Elvis than Picasso. /sarcasm alert

"I would think you would know more about The Velvet Elvis than Picasso." Actually, my tastes are a little more refined than that. I'm more of a "Poker Dogs" man...

I should have known you were more of a Poker Dog fan.
