His classical mode, which he would revert to for decades to come, can also be seen as a gesture of independence. After his collaboration with Braque ended with his comment that Braque is my wife words that were as disparaging to women as to Braque Picasso remained a loner for the rest of his career. But a loner with a court and maitresses en titre. He didnt even form a friendship with Matisse until both artists were old. His close relationships tended to be with poets and writers.
Though the public saw him as the archetypal modernist, he was disconnected from much modern art. Some of the greatest modern painters Kandinsky, for instance, or Mondrian saw their work as an instrument of evolution and human development. But Picasso had no more of a Utopian streak than did his Spanish idol, Goya. The idea that art evolved, or had any kind of historical mission, struck him as ridiculous. All I have ever made, he once said, was made for the present and in the hope that it will always remain in the present. When I have found something to express, I have done it without thinking of the past or the future. Interestingly, he also stood against the Expressionist belief that the work of art gains value by disclosing the truth, the inner being, of its author. How can anyone enter into my dreams, my instincts, my desires, my thoughts ... and above all grasp from them what I have been about perhaps against my own will? he exclaimed.
