I was thinking how different these two artists are.
Also, I had a thought..
I like Neo, Prog Metal, Hard Rock and some Symph and Art Rock, and I prefer Dali.
Maybe those who like other genres (Kraut, Electronic etc) prefer Picasso?

I don't really know anything about art, but based on what I've seen I definitely choose Dali.

I like prog-metal, post-rock, and experimental music, but I prefer Dali.  He has been my favorite artist ever since i can remember liking art.

I may be the only one but I prefer Picasso. This guy has done everything and has improved everything. I study history of arts at school and there's no doubt Picasso is a genius. Clap

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

Picasso. Though Dali may be the more obvious "prog" choice!

Wow, surprising to see so many Dali fans here (as opposed to Picasso that is). To repeat the (now) cliche... my favorite painter, indeed.


The very best reference book you can get is the thick black one with gold print on the front, simply titled "Dali". Has EVERYTHING, and mostly in acceptable size.

Picasso by a mile, simply because he invented many of the techniques that are quite common among artists today. Many may think Picasso could not paint because of the way he distorts shapes sometimes; I advise them to have a look at the drawing of "Don Quijote and Sancho Pansa"; you couldn't have drawn it any better, nor with less lines.
Dali was a charlatan. One genius of a charlatan, but a charlatan nevertheless. Of course his paintings are often so-called "surrealistic" (though the Surrealists themselves kicked him out pretty soon), which has a lot of appeal among proggers.
