"Picasso - The Art of War" Part 10: Art and Culture, a World Apart

“Computers are useless. They can only give you answers” Pablo Picasso

The art and culture world is just like a computer – many forms of communication that creates a web of intricate deception. A world all its own filled with an array of characters ranging from artists, poets, writers, intellects, musicians, dancers, stage and screen, media and surprisingly enough, diplomats from all countries.

It is no wonder why Picasso, a master seducer and lover of women would relish the artistic world, not for the art, but for the sex. If a person craves sexual activity, they enter the art world, because at least it’s safe; secrets are always kept, instead of venturing into the bad section of town where it’s much more dangerous. Secrets are kept close which makes this arena the best opportunity for intelligence gathering. A culture of sleazy back room deals in who will succeed and who will fail. Those with the power to grease the wheel of profit do so with lies and deception. It’s a world filled with art, but is the art real or fake? Two worlds intertwined into one: those who create the art because they love being creative and those who profit from them by selling their souls by becoming a propaganda artist because a patron of the arts waves dollars before their starving eyes.

Picasso started his career much the same way when a patron by the name of Gertrude Stein, a American millionaires offered to take him under her wing in 1905 Having such a wealthy patron doors began to open for the young artist. Stein and her two brothers, Michael and Leo helped his career launch by purchasing many of his early works. Quickly he became a hit among those within Paris and soon he had a following of other artists following him around.

Through his patronage of Gertrude Stein, Picasso was introduced to many important figures; one of them was Serge Diaghiley’s Ballets Russes. As the artist who would create the scenery for the Russian Ballet troop performing in Rome, Picasso’s web of characters would expand, thanks to his marrying Olga Khoklova, a ballerina with the troupe. It was through his involvement with Olga and the cultural world she belonged, he would be introduced to a man by the name of Nicholas Roerich, a Russian artist. After returning to Paris, it was Khokhlova with her social connections that would raise Picasso from just another artist to that of one worthy of being included into high society. Picasso no longer needed the likes of Stein, he now had his own personal patron in Khokhlova who helped him achieve his ultimate fame and fortune, allowing him to enjoy the social niceties in life during the 1920s Paris.

Roerich would later become a world famous artist in his own right, but he was also an ardent supporter of the Soviets in the 30's and WWII. Picasso being a member of the French Communist Party before he arrived in Rome made for an instant friendship between these two men. It is believed that after meeting Roerich, Picasso began his propaganda campaign to help further the cause of the Communist Party.

Picasso became the number one propaganda artist for the Communist Party for the next twenty-five years and his following grew to a network worldwide which made him a key player in the propaganda wars.

The Art and Culture world would be transformed during Picasso’s lifetime into an invisible government filled with creativity, intellectual freedom and cultural power warped by communist ideology wrapped in a nice neat package ready for sale to the willing buyer.

American in the meantime was being accused of being a cultural desert by the Soviets and in 1947, the Department of State began fighting back. An exhibition called, “Advancing American Art” was organized and paid for by the Department of State and went international. This created a stir across the globe. While the Soviets became the patron to many Russian artists, musicians and writers, the American Government countered their effort by becoming patron too.

Realizing the Soviets and the KGB were using art and culture as a tool to further their cause, America counter attacked by creating the Congress of Artistic Freedom. The Congress of Artistic Freedom was a covert unit under the CIA with a budget of approximately $160,000 (3 million by today’s standards), in 1950 as the Cold War begin to escalate. Politically this helped them promote their cause of Anti-Communistic behavior via the visual arts and the written word; it also gave them a golden opportunity to gather intelligence to safeguard America.

Over the next seventeen years, while Picasso continued with his propaganda work, the Congress of Artistic Freedom would open offices in thirty-five countries, while creating and publishing two dozen magazines world wide. The unit would be headed up by a CIA Agent, yet the staff comprised of academic intellectuals from Harvard, Yale and other Ivy League Universities who were known for collecting works of art and writing novels in their spare time, A treasure trove of liberalism became the new culture of the art world with a new breed of writers, poets, artists and musicians.. Abstract Expressionism was created because it didn’t make any sense. Socialistic Realism made Abstract Expressionism appear to be non-conformity which drove them mad.

How did the CIA conduct their patronage of the arts? It was a simple, they would approach a known millionaire and convince them to create a non-profit wherein the CIA would funnel money to them and direct them on what exhibitions, artists and magazines to support. Through their intricate web, the Rockefeller Foundation which was the main patron of the Museum of Modern Art and largest holder of Picasso artwork, the Ford Foundation, and many others did what they could to assist the CIA in their mission. New York City would become the mecca of the art world in the United States. Greenwich Village or SoHo became the liberal hotspot of writers, magazine editors, fashion designers and drugs. On Long Island the Hamptons attracted an international crowd of series art collectors, many with hidden art work never to be seen by the average person, would be come the power broker capitol of art dealing.

In 1967, the Congress for Cultural Freedom was exposed and embarrassed because of its CIA sponsorships connections throughout the previous decade. Although it was successful in ultimately helping to negate the Communism's appeal to artists and intellectuals; undermining the Communist position of moral superiority. It must be said that the untimely halt of this program helped perpetuate the spread of Communism throughout the United States throughout the Vietnam Era and beyond.

Today, the top five cities for dealing in art are NYC, London, Paris, Tokyo, and Singapore. Each of these cities has museums that hold thousands of works of art displayed for public view. Only question is, are these pieces of art truly the original pieces or are they fake? With the cost of maintaining precious artwork coupled with the cost of insurance to safeguard these pieces, one has to wonder if they are the originals. It’s a known fact within the art world that many museums sell off their valuable pieces because they can no longer afford to insure them in their collections. Curators throughout the world are known to quietly sell them to private collectors to ensure their museum can continue to flourish financially. A duplicate copy is created and hung in its place.

While the world views art as beautiful and alluring, why is that Picasso’s art work from 1965 through 1967 still eludes the public? The hunt for Picasso’s Tarnschriften (German for camouflaged art that was used by the Resistance in WWII) is on ladies and gentleman; where are these pieces? I know of one piece, but it’s the final piece in his collection, I’d be interested in seeing what the other pieces have to show of his covert spying network. Why are they hidden from the public? The Picasso family is in search of them and so are Chinese Art Dealers, WHY? In fact, Chinese Art Dealers are buying up his later work faster than they can be put on the market. Is it because Picasso sent these pieces to friends and colleagues, his Cold War Trophy Pieces, to ensure they had the hidden keys to his success for the Communist Party?
Picasso’s intricate web of deception and influence throughout the occult world of Art and Culture was driven by his ego. While he seemed like the mad scientist yearning to find the final formula to his experiment, in the end the occult of socialistic ideology used him for their own deception.

"Picasso - The Art of War" Part 8: Creating a Puppet President - Obama

Picasso's new version of the Dove of Peace Circa 1962

While researching Picasso for this series, I was astounded to learn Picasso was Barak Obama’s favorite artist. When we look at the list of people Obama claims to admire, Lincoln, FDR, Gandhi, Martin Luther King, John Coltrane, and Picasso; Picasso just didn’t fit. It is because of his admiration for Picasso that I started looking into the connection between the two men and why Obama would admire a communist artist. It is, for this reason, I began looking into the background of Obama and the whole birth certificate issue to find a connection between him and the Communist Party. Could it be that Obama was sending a clear message to those in the Communist Party - I’m with you in your cause?

Is it a coincidence that his half-sister was named Maya? No, because his mother was a staunch Communist supporter and follower of Picasso’s artwork and Picasso’s oldest daughter’s name is Maya..

After finding the connection between Obama and his family history with the Communist Party, I began to get curious about the debate over President Obama’s birth certificate. It’s ironic that those who have been researching this piece of paper, have failed to see the most important key piece of research - not in where Obama was born, but instead how and why his birth was registered in Hawaii. The other question they should be asking is why he ran for elected office in Chicago, Illinois instead of Hawaii.

Obama has confirmed he was born in 1961, yet he refuses to say exactly where that birth occurred. Let’s look at the evidence and chain of events.

According to the Hawaiian Registry of Birth which was verified by the Hawaii Law Library, the legal registry of any birth didn’t have to be provided by a hospital or parent in 1961; in fact, it could be accomplished by a grandparent or relative. It has also been verified by both the Registry and Law Library that up until 1979, anyone could enter the Department of Health for Vital Statistics and register the birth of any child. It didn’t matter where they were born as long as the person registering the child was a citizen of Hawaii. In 1979 these rules changed. If a child was born in Hawaii then the child would be listed as born on what Island and in what hospital. If the child was born in a foreign country it was listed accordingly. Therefore, in 1961 a registry of birth was filed in Hawaii for a boy child born to Ann Dunham but that birth was not registered by Ann herself, rather it was accomplished by her mother, Madelyn Lee Payne Dunham. In 1970 Obama’s half-sister Maya Soetoro was born in Jakarta, Indonesia and within a few days of her birth, Madelyn Lee Payne Dunham registered her birth with the registrar’s office in Hawaii too. She could do this in both cases because she was a resident of Hawaii. One must remember, Hawaii had only been a state under the United States of America for less than two years and their registry of birth procedures was still under the old system. It was not until 1977 when the U.S. Vital Statistics office began to change procedures and those changes included registry of foreign birth instead of live birth within the new state of Hawaii. Those changes took effect in 1979. Accordingly, any registry of Obama’s birth in the state of Hawaii in 1961 was the direct action of Madelyn Dunham not any doctor that was registered to practice medicine within the state, nor any hospital employee. Although Stanley and Madelyn had many friends throughout the Hawaiian Islands they could call upon to help in accomplishing this mission.

While living in Indonesia as a child, Obama was schooled as a British Citizen, under a British Passport. He was schooled in the Muslim faith by the highest Imam of the community. In the Islamic community, once you are a Muslim you can never denounce your faith in Allah, even though he claims to be a Christian – you can’t be both in the Islamic community.

So if he was under a British Passport how could he be a citizen of the United States? Coming from a low-income family as he claims, how could he have afforded to go to college at Occidental College in California, Columbia University in New York, and Harvard University in Boston?

While the country goes into a frenzy over whether Obama is truly a United States Citizen, all one has to do is look at the facts to answer these puzzling questions.

Let’s start with his grandparents. One major question to be asked is who was Stanley Dunham and his wife Madelyn Lee Payne Dunham. Although Stanley served in the Army during WWII and Madelyn worked in a bank, they didn’t move to Hawaii for the sun, sand, and surf, instead, they moved there in the fifties because they wanted to leave the United States of America to be among their own kind – other members of the Communist Party. Their entire circle of friends was all displaced Communists who left the United States to ensure they wouldn’t be caught up in the McCarthy investigations during the fifties.

One of their closest allies in the Communist movement was Frank Marshall Davis, a journalist, poet and Communist supporter who moved to Hawaii from Chicago in 1948 on the advice of Paul Robeson, another known Communist sympathizer. Hawaii during this time was going through a major change politically and socially. They were experiencing a non-violent revolution between colored labor workers and the white elite known as the Democratic Revolution. As an instigator for the labor movement spreading across the country, Davis was excited to meet Harry Bridges, an Australian-American who was a known Communist Party member. Davis began helping Bridges organize workers along the docks and encouraged them to get involved with the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) headed up by Bridges.

Throughout the 40s, while living in Chicago Davis denounced the Communist Party in public, but quietly helped them through the publication of his articles by including certain propaganda phrases. Through mutual friends at the Abraham Lincoln School in Chicago, he was introduced to Saul Alinsky during one of his community organizing events in the south side of Chicago, and soon after Davis began supporting Alinsky’s efforts.

As a member of the Civil Rights Congress and a teacher of Jazz at the Abraham Lincoln School, he used his position to help spread the word about Alinsky’s programs whereby promoting his socialistic ideology. The Civil Rights Congress run by William Patterson was later found to be a Communist propaganda front. Patterson was also the head of the Abraham Lincoln School in Chicago.

It was Davis who mapped out Obama’s career and school path even before Obama left Hawaii for the mainland. Through Frank Davis’s connections in California through the ILWU, Obama left Hawaii in 1979 for Occidental College, using his British Passport to register as a foreign student, thereby allowing him to receive U.S. federal government grants for his education. But I thought he was an American Citizen you might ask? Wait it gets better let's look at his entire career until now.

In 1981 he traveled to Indonesia, India, and Pakistan under the opus of visiting his mother and school friends. Upon returning to the United States he transferred from Occidental College to Columbia University in New York. After graduating from Columbia, he worked for a company called Business International Corporation, a known CIA front Company. After leaving BIC he went to work for New York Public Institute Research Group also in New York.

It was a known fact that during the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s infiltration of top government agencies, academic universities, and the cultural arts community by the Communist Party was being investigated by not only McCarthy’s Un-American Activities Committee but also the FBI. Unfortunately, McCarthy’s efforts to thwart the rise of socialistic infiltration were halted because of Roy Cohn’s attempt to subvert the United States Army hearing with a doctored photograph. Was this a covert sabotage of the investigation or just a stupid mistake?

1985 he moves to Chicago Illinois – why would a man who lives in Hawaii want to move to the cold windy city of Chicago? There is a very important reason why he decided on Chicago. Let’s look at the facts and the connections to the Communist Party throughout his career in Chicago.

From 1985-1988 Obama worked for the Developing Communities Project in Chicago; an Alinsky ideology group. During this same time period, he also worked with the Gamelial Foundation (founded in 1968 based on the principles of Alinsky which were actually Karl Marx's principles and ideologies) which was supported by the PICO National Network out of Oakland California, another Alinsky ideology group. He also worked for the Woods Fund of Chicago as a member of their Board of Directors (1994-2002 alongside his friend and colleague Bill Ayers a known communist sympathizer who is a staunch supporter of the anti-war and peace movement), He was on the board of the Joyce Foundation and Chicago Annenberg Challenge (the planned restructuring of our school system to help indoctrinate our children).

During 1988 he also traveled to Europe for three weeks, then on to Kenya for another five weeks. He’s never explained nor described where he went or who he met during this timeframe. Upon his return from his travels, he entered Harvard University and returned to Chicago during breaks to continue his work for his many community organizing groups. He also worked for Hopkins and Sutter who just so happened to be on the board of directors of the Gamaliel Foundation. One of the attorneys who worked for Skinner became the Chief of Staff for George H.W. Bush during his presidency.

Between the years of 1994-2008, Obama worked for Project Vote which was to coordinate unregistered voters throughout Illinois to ensure voter registration. The main group to coordinate this project was none other than ACORN. It was in 2002 that Obama allowed his law license to lapse, claiming an oversight in paperwork, but in reality, it was because he had unpaid parking tickets from his Harvard University days. This later piece of evidence is a breach of the Cannon Rules of being a lawyer.

Now let’s look at his political career. He was elected to the Illinois State Senate in 2004 and was endorsed by every union in the area. His constituents were all from the South Side of Chicago. The South Side of Chicago is the very area in which Alinsky and the Communist Party created their community organizing organizations to create their plan of the eventual takeover of America by using the people of the community as their ultimate pawns for success.

During the presidential campaign, Obama was seen on many occasions never placing his hand over his heart while the American National Anthem was played. He couldn’t because that would go against everything he was brought up to believe in – the Communist Manifesto. One must remember that his mother, grandparents, and family friends were all Communist sympathizers to the cause.

Throughout his campaign for President, he received endorsements from academia 40, Nobel Peace Prize winners 69, Unions 36, Newspapers 125, current and former president/vice presidents 2/2, current and former US Senators 48/18, current and former Congressional Reps 196/20, current and former Governors 17/22, but the kicker is the list of Foreign Endorsements 20 which include 19 socialist party members. Since the 2008 election evidence has surfaced that the majority of our elected officials in Washington DC who represent the Democratic Party have admitted to being socialist sympathizers or who have accepted money from the Communist Party. Each of these representatives is on the list of Endorsements for Barak Obama which only goes to show you how much the United States of America has been infiltrated by the Communist Party. The majority of the Nobel Prize winners who endorsed him are also connected to the Communist Party. There is no wonder why the famed Nobel Prize organization felt compelled to award Obama the Nobel Peace Prize when he didn't do anything to deserve it after taking office in Washington, DC.

His words and actions since taking the office of President have spoken for him. The first action against the American government was when he took the oath of office, he purposefully screwed up the oath so as to appear as though he was saying it properly, but in fact, he could not bring himself to swear an oath to protect and defend the United States Constitution. There has never been any video produced whereby showing the American people he properly took the oath, therefore, he doesn’t have to defend the Constitution and the laws of America. This was all part of the plan by people like Pablo Picasso and the Communist Party – subvert the American political system and control America. Picasso himself dreamed about this vision, which is why he gifted the Chicago Picasso to the City of Chicago. He was clearly sending a message to his comrades, one day your prince will take over America from the very city this statue stands. This is the reason why I chose the Picasso artwork you see above - it clearly shows his Dove stomping on the very symbols of freedom.

Throughout my investigation it is apparent Barak Hussein Obama is clearly a Communist Sympathizer, and has systematically infiltrated and subverted the power of the United States Political system and it’s Government which makes him a threat to the national security of America.

"Picasso - The Art of War" Part 6: Picasso's Legacy of Arrogance

Part 6: Legacy of Arrogance

“We all know that art is not the truth, art is a lie that makes us realize the truth” Pablo Picasso



Attributed Unknown Picasso Circo 1967 (c) DXK Collection

 In his own words, Picasso said it all, but what he doesn’t tell you is his work was full of truth; the truth of his own activities, deception and manipulation. Known for his womanizing and lack of respect for females, its ways to see how he conducted his life’s work. He was known to have said – “It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction”. It was through his seduction of the art world that he was given the liberty to promote his propaganda, seed after seed of death and destruction – all in the cause of the Communist Party.

It was through his seduction those who bought his work supported his activities, believing he was a genius, but in reality because they were in a prominent position in society, those who first purchased his work were themselves believers in the cause of Communism. They gave his work credibility and the outlet to spew his hidden messages. Through this alliance he gained prominence and accessibility to representatives of various countries, including representatives and politicians from America.

Believing he was just an eccentric artist representatives of various countries allowed themselves to be seduced by the man and whether innocently or on purpose, confided secrets not to be shared outside their circle of people in the know; possible secrets to national security of a nation. It was through these interactions Picasso was able to play maestro and orchestrate his deception in using such information for the cause or planting seeds to the destruction of certain historical events.

Either this piece of art is his ultimate Cold War Trophy because it reveals his triumphant achievements or because he had such an ego, it reveals his arrogance. It is a very complex diary of his work for and with the communist party, plus his revenge on America. Let’s examine a few interesting letters and symbols here, and then I direct you to spending a few hours reading and examining Mr. Kenney’s work more carefully via his site. (Website address at the bottom of this article)

The letters contained within this piece have variant meanings, but first let’s look at the obvious translations: TARN and TT which stands for Tarntel and Tarnschriften. Tarantella or Tarntel in German means Tarantula or wolf spider. Tarnschriften is the name of a camouflaged publication printed from 1933 to 1945 wherein information was shared throughout the European community to avoid censorship by the Nazi’s. Within this publication many articles and stories were written by prominent members of the Communist Party to share secret information and messages. It is believed that the first “T” represents the writer from this publication that ensured these messages were printed within its pages. One can assume the translation of tarantula or wolf spider might have been his code name within the party, which is why Picasso made sure a spider, was included in this piece of work.

Now let’s look at the letters and numbers throughout this piece and what they refer to in history.

SS could only mean Soviet Secret Service which was created by Stalin when he established his network of intelligence gathering escapades throughout Germany, Great Britain, France, Japan and the United States. This network ensured the Communist movement was able to infiltrate the highest levels of each government and relay information.

SEC in French mean Secret or Secretariat which can only mean the person to whom was involved with the SS network of intelligence was or inferred as the Secretariat of France.

Letters surrounding the head of the woman:

S, T, Tarn, EL, ARM, C, P.I.C.A.S.S.O

The letters from P through O as referred to above clearly spell out Picasso’s name and are to make sure the person who this piece of work was sent to after its completion knew he was involved in everything mentioned in this his Cold War Trophy. The other letters can only mean specific words, terms or persons.

C – at the base of the nose surrounding what appears to be an image of Fidel Castro with full beard. This could only mean he was either referring to the two telegrams he received from his comrade Castro (telegram wishing him a happy 80th birthday in 1961 and upon being awarded the Lenin Peace Prize in 1962), or it is confirmation to a direct connection between the two men from a distance.

#51 is clear and has two meanings: First representing Castro’s involvement in the Cold War and his direct involvement with China’s Communist Party in the Korean War. The second refers to the completion of his work called “Massacre in Korea” wherein he depicted the slaughter of women and children by South Korean and US forces of Communist sympathizers. One has to wonder if Picasso ever has an original thought in any of his work, because this one piece of work looks just like the Goya painting “The Third of May 1808” wherein Goya shows Napoleon's soldiers executing Spanish civilians. Where Goya was a true artist in his work, Picasso’s depiction looks like a child’s rendition of the same artist work.

There are multiple Dragons throughout the piece holding paint brushes. The symbol of a dragon in connection to the Communist party refers to the Russian Folklore “Sword & the Dragon” both of which are also found in mythology and mystical findings. Both these symbols can also be attributed to the Ride of Valkyria. (More about the Ride of Valkyria in Part 8 of this series). These dragons can be found on the leg of the female, again in group 2 photos’s as it paints a white dove (this represents Picasso’s famous Dove of Peace) and again as it encircles a U in the black area, in the gray area as it forms an S and then it wraps around an A. These last letters can only mean U.S.A.

There are many themes throughout this piece of work, mythical and mystical as well as Cold War, World War II and Spanish War. Picasso through his ego and arrogance ensured the world would one day understand and praise him for his involvement and assistance in these three endeavors for the Communist Party.

Items I’ve pointed out in this piece throughout this series is only the tip of the iceberg found at http://romanofficer.com/Picasso/PicassoPage.htm . I highly recommend you spend some time to view and read Mr. Kenney’s amazing work in deciphering Pablo Picasso’s hidden Diary of deceit and vengeance against not only the world but against America and its freedom.

"Picasso - The Art of War" Part 5: Picasso's Hidden Code's and Secrets

Attributed Unknown Picasso Circa 1967 (c) DXK Collection

Throughout history archeologists and scholars have ignored miniature or micro art carved, sketched or painted on various pieces of pottery, shields, swords, statues and parchment they have excavated throughout the world. Those who created these various pieces were telling hidden tales - to leave for someone to find in the future. Rarely if all have any of these pieces ever been studied, deciphered, and understood so that we could possibly understand some histories greatest mysteries.

Unless someone points out the varying layers of symbolism within a piece of art, the average observer would never see them to understand their true meaning. Picasso was the master of hiding hidden messages throughout his work during his career. Only those who understood the codes hidden could read them swiftly.

One has to wonder why Picasso would put so many micro and miniature art messages and symbols into one piece of art such as this one; then again he was a clever or should I say devious artist. Throughout this piece Picasso tells us of his involvement in the Cold War and how he was able to manipulate those around him to do his bidding. We have to remember, he believed no one was as clever has he was or capable of figuring it out for hundreds of years. Is this Picasso’s true trophy piece? His ultimate message to the world that he expected would evolve after a Communist victory – this is what I was able to accomplish right underneath the noses of the foes of communism as the ultimate Warrior Shaman of revenge?

Well, one man has figured out the symbols, the letters and the hidden messages of this cleverly crafted piece of art. His name is David Kenney. Although Kenney’s primary area of research and focus has been with ancient artifacts and militaria with a concentration on Roman legionary, his work also extends to works of art of certain modern masters. In 2004, Kenney began noticing miniature art on various artifacts from the Roman Era, which led to similar discoveries on artifacts from the Paleolithic era and other works clear up until the 1960's. For years, he had been noticing miniature and micro art on artifacts but could not define exactly what they meant; that is until this past decade. “Miniature art appears to be the self expression of one's true beliefs and a connection to the divine; it has been with us for at least 600,000 years, and it all but disappeared by the late 1960's. It appears that over the last 2,000 years it has been most popular with artists, artisans, royalty, the nobility, soldiers, and prostitutes,” he explains.

In 2005, after purchasing this attributed unknown Picasso from a Dutch dealer in Holland, he noticed the varying levels of hidden micro and miniature art. As an artist, sculpture and Cold War Warrior, it was easy for Kenney to see the hidden messages contained within this piece of art. After careful study and examining every centimeter of it, researching the various symbolisms for their meanings, Kenney began to see the story Picasso was clearly hiding and how they connected to various historical events. No wonder the Picasso Family doesn’t want Picasso's work from 1965 – 1967 seen by the world as this may have been the period when Picasso was most active with his reflections on his "gains" as a Cold War Warrior for Communism – this truly is his ultimate trophy piece of corruption, manipulation and calculating Communist behavior around the world.

Before you view the art work, think 1960’s, Cold War, Vietnam War, Peace Movement and Civil Rights movement, then look upon this piece of art, what do you see? Clearly there is a man sitting on a chair? Could this represent Johnson? In the center is a woman with her hand at the man’s throat. Who does that represent? Could it be Olga, Picasso’s girlfriend and love? Maybe it’s a symbolism of the Statue of Liberty. Below the man is a bucket, as if to show he’s about to relieve himself. Within the fold of her right eye (black on white area) is a figure with horns, it is a Shaman Warrior that no doubt is Picasso himself in this fashion. There is micro art picture of Castro on the nose and a hook. A dragon holding what appears to be a paint brush. A baby can be seen on the head of the woman. It appears to be a tarantula near the head along with the letters TT and SS too. Look closely, there’s a canary on the lips. So many symbols and hidden messages it’s hard to keep up right? This was the intent of Picasso, to confuse the person who is viewing this piece of work. It is his arrogance that makes this one piece so important because it’s not only his trophy piece, it’s his personal diary of his life’s work for the communist party.

In tomorrow’s segment I will explain more of what these symbols and letters mean and their connection to possible historical event. If you’d like to view each symbol closely, please visit http://romanofficer.com/Picasso/PicassoPage.htm and read Mr. Kenney’s painstaking research of this Attributed Unknown Picasso work.

"Picasso - The Art of War" Part 4: Picasso's Secret Diary

“Painting is just another way of keeping a Diary” Pablo Picasso

Picasso didn’t just say the above quote, he lived it. Throughout his career he utilized his canvas to tell the story of his life; his inner most thoughts, actions, desires, and most importantly, his accomplishments - hiding propaganda messages within his work. His canvas was his Diary!

“We all know that art is not the truth, art is a lie that makes us realize the truth” Pablo Picasso

In his own words, Picasso said it all, but what he doesn’t tell you is his work was full of the truth; the truth of his own activities, deception and manipulation. Picasso was known for his womanizing and disrespect for females, so it’s easy to see how he conducted his life. Again, in his words, “it is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction”. It was his seduction of the art world that gave him the liberty to promote his propaganda. It was through the European art world where he planted seeds one by one of hatred for freedom. Yet it was that freedom that gave him his voice

In the two pieces of his work I have already brought to your attention, the Dove of Peace and the Chicago Picasso, one can clearly see they weren’t designed for the pleasure of the eye, but like a Shaman cultivating his seeds of deception, he used them to manipulate the weak with his hidden messages. Messages he used to further the cause of the Communist Party agenda.

Today, I am unveiling an unknown attributed work of Pablo Picasso, a gouache on paper that shows miniature art and cleverly hidden art, some of which contain symbols and codes that span decades - dated 1967. With each symbol, each set of letters and cleverly hidden character I will show a direct connection to historical events in which he was involved. This piece of art is his final message to the world – I’ve been able to manipulate and control you, world events while assisting my beloved Communist Party from my little piece of the world.

Attributed Unknown Picasso 1967 (C) DXK Private Collection



This is definitely one in a series of works the Picasso family is in search of – those missing pieces of art from 1965 – 1967 - they don’t want the world to see. Why would they want to prevent the public from seeing these pieces of art; maybe because they will clearly show just how dangerous the man was in life?

When this work was produced he was just about 87-years old and it’s not clear why he decided to put his propaganda work on one canvas like this; maybe he thought it would never be deciphered by anyone for centuries. We’ll it has been deciphered by someone and thank the heavens it has, because it clearly helps to unravel the destruction and complicated web that has been weaved by the Communist Party to control everything within the free world.

The United States Government suspected Picasso of being inside the highest level of the Communist Party, but he always denied it. Well this piece of art proves he was not only privy to information before it was made known, but he helped orchestrate it. How else would a painter know of such things?
In tomorrow’s segment, I will point out and explain certain symbols and codes to help you understand what they mean.

"Picasso – The Art of War" Part 3: Army of Dove's

After being denied access to the United States in 1950, due to his involvement in the Communist Party in France and strong connections to the party in the Soviet Union; Picasso stepped up his efforts for the cause by redesigning, once again, his Dove of Peace. The drawing above shows his Dove of Peace surrounded by colorful flowers –these flowers represent the children of the world.


By early 1950, the Communist Party in Europe were low on followers because of World War II, therefore, they needed a new army to help them combat freedom, liberty and the pursuit of happiness spreading around the globe. Master manipulator Picasso together with others within the Communist Party devised a new plan - they needed a new Army; a young, impressionable army that could be molded and manipulated into doing their bidding for a new future of the Communist Party. They needed an Army of Dove’s but how would they achieve their goals? They decided to use the International Peace Movement and other organizations with the same objective to build a new Army of Dove’s.

The Soviet Union being the strongest of Communist countries together with members of the Communist Party in China, Vietnam, Korea and other countries around the world, banned together to collectively create their new Army of supporters. Picasso of course being a strong supporter of the Communist Party loaned his name to the cause and was once again invited to be a part of the new Peace Movement to ensure his efforts were carried out precisely as planned.

Although their Cold War Activities weren’t a sure thing, the Soviet Union had to ensure they would be successful. With the help of some powerful businessmen in America who they already had duped and were controlling, they began funneling money through them to the right philanthropy organizations who were already involved in the so called movement to prevent war. By using these noted and worthy causes, they were able to begin to control how the movement’s activities could benefit them and their Cold War Activities. These same businessmen helped them gain control over political campaigns in America and throughout the world.

This was confirmed in the autobiography of Russian foreign military intelligence directorate (GRU) defector Stanislav Lunev called “The GRU and the KGB.” Although Lunev never revealed the names of those involved, he did confirmed funding was funneled into the United States for anti-war and peace movement activities during the Korean and Vietnam War. In his book he stated that over 1 billion dollars was strategically funneled throughout America to help undermined the American people in supporting their cause during both wars. This funding wasn’t just for anti-war and peace movement activities; they were calculating and manipulative in helping to brainwash and undermine how the American youth perceived their activities. Money wasn’t the only thing smuggled into the countries they targeted, so was mind altering drugs.

Mind altering drugs such as the use of marijuana, hashish, peyote, cocaine, heroine and other mind alter drugs were smuggled into America and freely dispensed to American youth. One has to wonder what American pharmaceutical groups profited from these lies and deception. Who in the US could have profited the most from such an attack on American youth? Which high priced businessmen were involved in the pharmacy companies during the fifties and sixties who were in line with the Russians to have helped them – knowingly or unknowingly perpetuate the issuance of such drugs? You’ll have to be the one to research that objective.

Once the drugging of American youth objective was underway, they turned their efforts to Phase two of their plan; reeducating the country. Through the help of their operatives within the academia world, set in motion back during the Wilson Administration, they carefully selected certain groups who could easily be persuaded. Under the cloak of wanting to help academia better educate their students, they set out to fund non-military, anti-war peace conferences and youth conferences; all directed at a campaign to create an illusion of education to defund and downsize the American military. With the help of their already corrupt business leaders, they stepped up their plan by recruiting politicians with larger campaign donations. These activities weren’t just restricted to America; they were spread throughout the world.

Another group infiltrated was the woman’s movement throughout America. This was a cleverly orchestrated plan of attack. These groups helped to undermine the sanctity of the very foundation of family life. Through various women’s organizations, they were able to brainwash the mothers of our youth and reshape the way America prospered and grew. It was through these organizations and the women who were behind them they were able to obtain legal precedence with Roe vs. Wade. As a result, an increase of funding through Planned Parenthood and other groups who were hell bent on destroying America from within was underway.

As a result of his contribution with cloaked calculating deception, Picasso, the master manipulator of the Communist Party, gained the nickname “The Father of Peace” and was awarded for his efforts by receiving the International Lenin Peace Prize in 1962. It is widely known throughout the world just how much Moscow used Picasso’s reputation and his ability of hiding messages within his work for propaganda purposes. Although they gave him praise and accolades on the surface, in private they despised the man personally and dismissed his works as self-indulgent. His work was never shown throughout Russia, yet they gave him the honor of a postage stamp to help promote their cause and gain the support of his followers.

What was the end result of Picasso’s efforts overall? In reality he helped create a drug induced youth who walked around with his Dove of Peace plastered to their chest, their backs and their asses for the world to see during the 60’s. This achievement showed just how successful the Communist Party had become. Picasso’s Dove of Treachery and Revenge plan worked – he created a new Army of Dove’s to carry out the work of the Communist Party. Each individual who participated in these peace demonstrations in the streets of America were used, duped and spoon fed information they had no understanding about, all in the cause of the Communist Party effort to destroy America from within.

Today, the majority of those who participated in the peace and anti-war movement throughout America, during the fifties and sixties, are now the professors teaching in our colleges. Each of them is gladly teaching their wisdom to the youth of today. Karl Marx was correct, capture the mind of youth and you can control the country. With Picasso's Dove of Peace, he surely helped capture the minds of our youth during the 50's and 60's. Together Picasso and the Communist Party helped brainwash those within the peace movement around the world to do their bidding – a new type of warrior in their great game of chess or should I say strategy to defeat their opponent – The United States of America.

"Picasso – The Art of War" Part 2: A Dove of Peace or Revenge

When we think of the Dove of Peace, we think of purity, love and humanity. The world renowned symbol of Peace is a pure white dove, flying with a leaf in its beak, surrounded by colorful flowers reflecting tranquility and serenity.


The picture depicted above is what the International Peace movement wants you to believe, but in reality, it’s nothing more than a cover story for what the real intention has been since 1949.

After Allied Forces won World War II, Hitler’s army was defeated and the Communist Party throughout Europe had been crippled, or so we thought. They were thwarted yes, but not totally crippled to the point where they laid down their ideology and commitment. Instead, they regrouped silently and began planning their next attack; this time without bullets or war. They would launch a new attack that would take a considerable amount of time if their plan was to work.

Shortly after World War II ended in 1945, or maybe before it ended, Pablo Picasso was livid at the course to which world events turned against the Communist Party. His beloved Communist Party was losing ground and events in Paris during that time made him very angry at the United States of America; after all they thwarted the effort of the cause. No one knows if he consulted with anyone in the party, but we must assume he did because he created a new piece of artwork; a small painting of a Dove. This is no ordinary Dove, because if you look very closely, you will see it is not a Dove of Peace at all. In fact, it’s a Dove ruffling its feathers and on the wing in front, there’s clearly an upside down flag that can only be the flag of the United States of America for it has strips, but no stars.

Picasso was the master at disguising hidden symbols and meanings in all his artwork. This was his way of sending messages to those within the Communist Party throughout the world of what the party planned for the future. It is clear in this one piece of art, he was letting his fellow Communist members not to despair they were planning to ruffle the feathers of their enemy – America.

Later in 1949, Picasso having a strong knowledge of mythology, religion and history combined these three things into a new piece of work, the Dove of Peace and introduced it to members of the Congress of Peace. He again redesigned his famous Dove of Peace when the International Peace Movement started.

One must understand the history behind the symbol of the Dove based on biblical writings. First mentioned in the Old Testament wherein it says, Noah released a pigeon to see if the flood waters had receded. When it returned with a twig in its mouth, it was proof a new world had emerged from the flood waters and a mighty change had occurred.

In mythology, most all birds were associated with the creation of the life or a new world. In Ancient Egyptian mythology it was believed a new land rose out of the primeval waters of chaos and horror. Upon this new land appeared a bird perched on a branch.

Throughout Europe birds were used to symbolize power and strength. In 1917 the German Government printed a poster depicting a white dove with an olive branch flying under a black eagle. Now mind you the black eagle was the national symbol long before Hitler and the Nazi Party hijacked it. In fact according to Germany’s own history, the eagle has a rich heritage as their national insignia deriving from the heraldic Roman Aquila, including the German Empire and the Weimar Republic.

Taking into consideration all of the above, Picasso used his ability and talent yet again as the master of propaganda messages by using the symbolism of the Dove for the treachery campaign the Communist Party was creating.

The symbol of the Dove surrounded by colorful flowers was created as a symbol to be used by people all around the world under the cloak of deception. Many variations of his original symbol have been used by artists around the world; each with their own variation of their own interpretation. Throughout China the Dove can be seen in many Communist propaganda paintings and drawings. In many European communities there are pictures and posters of young children holding a Dove, this isn’t done by accident. In many Middle Eastern countries there are artist renditions of a Dove squatting on a scarf, or on top of a camel out in the desert. The symbol isn’t meant for peace, but for war.

After Picasso was denied access to the United States in 1950, his campaign intensified. It was time to enact his and the Communist Party’s plan for world domination, their numbers were low because of the war and they had to recruit unsuspecting individuals to help them – they turned to those within the new Peace Movement.

Did Picasso’s Dove of Treachery and Revenge plan work? We'll find out in Picasso - The Art of War," Part 3: An Army of Dove's.

"Picasso - The Art of War" Part 1: The Chicago Picasso or Secret to the Great Game"

Throughout history, the game of chess was originally designed as a strategy game of war. Originally found in Persia where the pieces were played as if an army was at war. The concept of the game is played like a battle on the battlefield - one army trying to gain dominance over their opponent’s army.


Originally, each piece represented a specific member of the military – King represented the General, Queen represented his wife and someone who needed protection. Bishop represented spiritual advisor, Knight (or Trojan horse) represent the warriors who followed the orders of the General, while the Rook symbolized the chariot of olden days and the pawn represented the common people who were expendable or collateral damage in a battle. It wasn’t until the game became popular in royal courts throughout Europe, the pieces changed to depict a courtly theme, but the strategy is still the same – war.

In researching Pablo Picasso’s artwork and his connection to the Communist Party during World War II and throughout his lifetime until his death in 1973; one piece of art stuck out like a sore thumb – The Chicago Picasso. Although he was commissioned to create this piece, by the City of Chicago, upon its completion, he refused to be paid; instead he donated it to the people of Chicago in 1967. Why would any artist refuse to be paid for his artwork you might ask yourself? Could it be because they relished having a piece of their art displayed before the public in the middle of a town? Could it be because they didn’t need the money? Could it be the artist was making a statement and those who accepted it never understood the true meaning of the sculpture? You got it!

Pable Picasso was known for his Communist propaganda messages in his artwork. After all, Picasso was the master of disguise in his work. He was also anti-American for a number of reasons. First was because he was a member of the French Communist Party since 1944 and became a celebrity among the party members. He was often called upon to create unusual pieces that also held special propaganda messages meant only for the person to whom the piece was sent too. The second reason, America helped thwarted the Communists in World War II. Last but not least and the most important reason of all, his ties to the Communist party in Soviet Russia and it was because of this connection that in 1950 he was denied access to the United States with a delegation who wanted to attend the Peace Conference in Washington, D.C. Therefore, his hatred for America became widely known and the Chicago Picasso was his way of making sure America knew he hated them with a passion. The Chicago Picasso is without a doubt his defining work for the Communist Party and one of his final propaganda pieces without exception.

To anyone who strolls down the streets of downtown Chicago and comes upon the Chicago Picasso, their first impressions are to marvel at the craftsmanship, the artistry and the magnitude of its size. What they don’t see is the symbolism of the statue itself. Within this one statue lays the artists pure hatred for America and all it holds dear. It is a true masterpiece by man who felt Communism would win out in the war against freedom. Look closely at this statue for it is the symbolism within this fifty foot sculpture that is the true message – a Trojan horse better known in the game of chess as a knight’s dominance over a pawn. Remember his life’s work was games of strategy in helping the Communist party achieve their goal of world dominance through propaganda. When you relate the game of chess, a strategic game of dominance over your opponent, you can plainly see the Trojan horse, or knight, a chess piece known as the warrior dominating over its pawn - the common people.

Now if you factor in Picasso’s love of mythology, religion and history then look at this piece a little differently;, you will see within the cut out of the back piece, it appears to be shoulders and a head. What you don’t see, unless you look at the statue from the right lower angle, where you see the wings are pointing downward, but in the center cut out is the symbol of one large ax head pointing downward. In ancient mythology the ax head pointing downward is the symbol for the Angel of Destruction or the Goddess of Death and Destruction. The ax head is also the symbol of a midevil execution by ax. The multiple rods holding the piece together are in a circular fashion and at the angle downward, this represent the symbol of arrows or darts. In contrast to the American eagle on the great seal wherein the arrows are pointing upward.

In order for my readers to understand the reference to the Angel of Destruction, you must understand Norse Mythology and Valkyria. The ancient symbols found in this statue can be clearly understood when we look into what Valkyria symbolism truly means – horse, wings, axes, arrows or darts. The mythological understanding of Valkyria is know as the chooser of the slain or decider of who will die in battle. As a Communisit, was Picasso telling the American people in this one statute is very clear – we will destroy you. If you still don’t understand the power of Valkyria, go rent Apocalypse Now (1979) or listen to the power and intensity of Wagner’s movement, “Ride of the Valkyria” which was played during the helicopter attack in the movie. Wagner's Ride of the Valkyria

So the question remains, why did he donate the piece rather than accept his rightful fee? Could Picasso have used the people of Chicago as his unwilling Pawns in his strategic propaganda game to ensure they accepted the world renowned artist’s work?

Picasso truly "locked and loaded" that symbolic Trojan Horse as his way of telling the American people they would one day be dominated by the Communist Party. Is his dream coming true?

"Picasso – Artist or Covert Spy?"

It is widely known throughout the art world that Pablo Picasso was a tyrant to his family, his children and in many cases his friends. He was also very generous man too; giving away gifts of his work in all shapes and sizes to friends, other artists, writers and in some cases those who did work for him and his wife Jacqueline.


Over the years, a few unknown pieces of Picasso’s work have surfaced by aging individuals who once worked for him in France, or mysteriously appeared at auction houses like Christie’s or Sotheby’s - who have the exclusive rights from the estate to sell his work. The hunt for these unknown pieces, especially his works from 1965 to 1967 are in high demand by not only the art world, but most importantly, the Picasso family heirs.

One has to wonder why the estate would be so eager to find these pieces. Is it to preserve the Picasso legacy? Is it because their strapped for cash and they want to sell them at a high price through their exclusive connection with Christie’s and Sotheby’s who can sell anything with the name Picasso on it. Or is it because these unknown works tell a story they don’t want known to Picasso admirers?

Upon learning about the case of Picasso Estate vs. Pierre Le Guennec I became intrigued about this case. The more I learned about it, the more I got upset and began researching Picasso’s work. Over the last month, I have been reviewing dozens of his masterpieces and noticed a few things that caught my eye. Symbols hidden in each piece that struck me kind of odd, so I began digging into his career, his work and his involvement with the French Communist Party.

With the help of a specialized art and antiquities expert who was kind enough to explain the variations in the artists work, I began to see a pattern of subtle messages and hidden meanings within each of his artistic works. In order to understand the art, you must first understand the artist. What I found in my research will certainly rock not only the art world, but the world as a whole.

It is also widely known throughout historical writings and memoirs, Pablo Picasso never hid his support for the Communist Party, especially during World War II, post-war and this continued until the artist died in 1973.

As a member of the French Resistance, Picasso was known for assisting with the dissemination of propaganda messages through his many masterpieces’. All one has to do is look at his work to see various religious, mythological and historical symbols deep within each stroke. As you look closer, each of these have a hidden propaganda message; messages hidden in the dark areas unseen by the average art enthusiast. Once you see one message, your eye will begin to detect other symbols in his many paintings, drawings, collages or his miniature art gouache pieces.

Over the next few weeks, I will release a number of articles that will help set the stage for my final piece – the unveiling of an unknown attributed work of Pablo Picasso, a gouache on paper that shows miniature art and cleverly hidden art, some of these contain symbols and codes that span decades, it definitely tells the story of a man who was much more than just an artist.

Picasso's Black Hearted Heirs Sue 71-year Old Electrician

It was reported in November of 2010, that a 71-year old electrician, Pierre Le Guennec, who periodically did work in the home of Pablo Picasso, had stolen over 271 pieces of precious artwork and had been hiding it in his garage since the sixties and seventies.

How was this so called theft uncovered? The situation all started when the aging electrician, putting his own affairs in order, sought to have the pieces of artwork given to him as gifts by both Pablo and Jacqueline Picasso during the time he worked for the Picasso family, authenticated by the Picasso estate. His motive wasn’t for himself, but for his grandchildren’s future education.

It is widely known within the art world that an artist of Picasso’s talent would continually draw, sketch and create minor pieces he never thought would sell. Artist of his caliber would often finance their living arrangements, food substance and travel expenses by trading these pieces instead of paying money for these transactions. Some would even give them as gifts to friends, associates or people they liked.

Pierre’s collection consisted of stray sketches, watercolors and Cubist collages created by the master painter.

The attorney’s for the Picasso Estate has not only authenticated this collection as Ole Pablo’s work, they valued the collection at over $80 Million dollar. Not only did they admit to this, they accused the old electrician of stealing the previous works of art and hiding them all these years. Talk about a pompas attitude towards an old man who was only trying to authenticate items given to him in his younger days.

Just because someone doesn’t have a receipt or a letter authenticating a gift there is no reason why the Picasso Estate would turn on this man who lovingly preserved these pieces of art, and then insult him even further by suing him for being a thief. If the man stole these pieces of precious art, does anyone really think he would contact the family directly to have them authenticated? No, he wouldn’t he would go to his grave claiming they were reproductions or never say a word.

Apparently Picasso’s son Claude Picasso and the other five heirs who make up the Picasso estate didn’t know their father at all. If these pieces were considered “Unknown” that means they didn’t know they existed, therefore, how could they claim they were stolen if they didn’t know about them?

It is widely known throughout many memoirs, including Pablo Picasso’s own writings, and letters from his friends and others that he was very generous with his discarded pieces of art. He would often give them away instead of throwing them out. He knew his name held value in the art world and although he personally never kept a record of his inventory, especially who he gave it to as a gift or gave it to in lue of payment for services rendered.

It was reported in various news articles here in the United States, including ABC news and CNN where the lawyer for the Picasso Estate stated, "It doesn't make sense that Picasso would give away 271 works. There are no documents which prove that this man was Picasso's close friend. It is simply unbelievable." I guess this lawyer gives a letter with every gift he gives a person within his circles. Le Guennec insisted in many interviews that, "It was Madame who gave them to me, because he was pleased with my service."

Either Picasso himself instructed his wife, Jacqueline to give them to him in appreciation for his dedication over the course of the three years he worked for the Spanish Painter, or Jacqueline just gave them to him because he continued to work for her even after the great painter died. Remember she out lived him by fifteen years and had to pay to keep up the name of Picasso.

One has to wonder if Claude and Polamo, Picasso’s children by his first wife Françoise Gilot are just being vengeful because Jacqueline refused to allow them to attend their father’s funeral which was Picasso’s wish after all. To think the Picasso children and the other heirs of his Estate would turn black hearted all in the name of money. Wonder how much they plan to auction off those new unseen 271 pieces for? Just think of the money they'll make when these end up at Christie's or Sotheby’s!

If I owned a Picasso I'd put it in the closet so I wouldn't have to be accused of stealng it!
