The Monday Morning Memo

PicabiaAndHIsQuixote_780

Sold at Christie’s in Paris on Nov. 28, 2012 for $280,000.

Here’s what Christie’s Auction House had to say about the painting:
“Painted around 1941-42, Don Quixote is one of a series of paintings by Picabia – based on the aesthetics of the poster – with imagery directly inspired by popular iconography. As in most of his paintings in the interwar years, the image is frozen, like a snapshot. The colours and brightness are exaggerated, with an excessive contrast between the warm and cool tones.”

“

Here are the top five regrets of the dying:
1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I hadn’t worked so hard. I wish I had spent more time with my family.
3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.

“

- Bronnie Ware, an Australian nurse who spent several years caring for patients in the last 12 weeks of their lives.
