[Elise Bell™️ @eliseybell]

I finished this book last night. I know it sounds like hyperbole but I think it’s one of the greatest things I’ve ever read. I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to come across it. I want to throw it at everyone.

Repost from Instagram, but I wanted to bring to attention one of the oddities of the #pablomatic show. This, despite the focus on Picasso's biography throughout the exhibition to call out his misogyny and general creepiness.

Physical is not the opposite of digital. I’ve said this a million times, I lecture on it tirelessly, yet I’m still surrounded by the false dichotomy. Why?
