People often think that art is sacred. Artists' works often make people lament their perspective and understanding of life. However, artists are a special group. Some people even think that it is impossible to be an artist without psychopathy, and artists must have quirks. Although this is too absolute, the author found in reading that many art celebrities have some quirks in sex, and so on. I don't want to prove anything, but through some of their habits, we can humanize them from the sacred position and step down from the altar. It can also be seen from the side that art and artists cannot be simply equated, so at least they can be closer to the true colors of artists and have a more thorough understanding of them.

Among the painters are Van Gogh, Gauguin and Picasso. They have strange ideas about love and sex.

Van Gogh's early proposal to the landlord's daughter Laura Lloyd was rejected, and then he suffered many failed relationships. He complained, "I must have a woman, or I will become rigid and become a stone." So that he frequented brothels, contracted sexually transmitted diseases from time to time, and often complained that his sexual function was getting worse and worse. He is jealous that his friend Gauguin is good at having fun with prostitutes. In a quarrel, he cut off a piece of ear skin and put it in an envelope to give it to a prostitute who didn't want to make up with him but was close to Gauguin. When the prostitute opened the envelope, she saw blood dripping from her ear skin and fainted on the spot. After a series of failures, he himself concluded: "painting and making love are incompatible;" Making love can make people dizzy ... If you want your work to be truly masculine, you should always remind yourself not to waste too much on women.

Van Gogh's friend Gauguin boldly painted the primitive and simple life of Polynesia in the South Pacific with colorful and strange brushes, which opened up a brand-new artistic world for the West. He spent a crazy time abroad on Sivava Island in the Pacific Ocean. He rented a small room there, covered with pornographic photos, and began to live perhaps the most bohemian life in the world. Any local woman, young or old, beautiful or ugly, can sleep in his bed if she wants. Anyway, he came and refused. For this reason, he soon contracted syphilis. However, although two years of debauchery made his syphilis more and more serious, he died of a heart attack on 1909 before syphilis ended his life.

Regarding women and sex, he once said: "In Europe, sexual intercourse between men and women is the result of love, while in the South Pacific, love is the result of sexual intercourse. Which one is right? We Europeans have always believed that it is a sin for men and women to have sex before falling in love. In fact, this is very problematic ... The real sin is that men and women sell their bodies for money ... Women want freedom, which is their right, but only when a woman no longer puts her reputation under her navel will she be free-maybe even healthier ... "

This view is shocking, but it is also thought-provoking when you think about it carefully.

More famous than the above two is Picasso, an abstract painter. Picasso loved young and beautiful women all his life. Generally speaking, before and after he had sex with a woman, this woman was often his model, as were his wife and many mistresses. He said, "All dogs in the world are the same, and so are women." Pierre Capone, an authoritative scholar who studied Picasso, once pointed out: "The pursuit of sexual stimulation is the basic driving force for his philandering; In his view, desire is violence, venting, riots, resentment and excesses. " Capone thinks that a passage in Arnaez Ning's Diary provides a clue for Picasso's attitude towards women: "Alice Palen, the wife of the surrealist painter Wolfgang Palen, is Picasso's mistress. She said Picasso always took pleasure in not letting women reach orgasm. As herold quoted Picasso's handwriting analysis in 1942,' love is so strong that he loves to destroy something, and that's what he loves to do.' "

Picasso himself said, "When we love a woman, we don't start by measuring her thighs with a ruler. In my opinion, there are only two kinds of women in the world-noble goddesses and humble maids. "

Literature is largely emotional, and many writers pursue sexiness, including many famous writers, such as Byron, Hugo, Tolstoy and Hemingway.

Sir Byron, a talented English poet, can be said to be the embodiment and symbol of romanticism in19th century. He won the world reputation as an arrogant and painful so-called "Byronic hero". However, his private life is full of absurdity.

When Byron was 9 years old, his young nanny, May Greer, aroused his great sexual curiosity. After Byron entered Harrow College, a British aristocratic school, he was easily involved in some sexual activities at school because he was eager to continue to get sexual stimulation. /kloc-entered trinity college of Cambridge university in 0/805, and then studied in London intermittently for three years. During this period, he lived a dissolute life, became addicted to alcohol and almost died. He smokes opium, prostitutes, and has two mistresses at the same time. One of them even makes her wear men's clothes, saying that his cousin is a smoke screen. But it was later exposed, because once, "the young' Mr.' miscarried in a private hotel on Bond Street, which scared the maids to be dumbfounded."

Byron had an affair with many women in his life. He was even accused of seducing his half-sister Augusta Lee.

Byron once estimated that almost half of his annual expenditure is "sexual expenditure", which is paid to more than 200 women respectively. "Maybe more than half," he once wrote, "because I didn't keep a careful account afterwards." He not only spent a lot of money, but also paid the price. He once suffered from gonorrhea, a sexually transmitted disease called "the curse of Venus", which is said to have been transmitted to him by his mistress.

Byron's romance and debauchery can be seen.

Victor hugo was not only a master of French literature in the19th century, but also a political force in that turbulent period. He is a genius, a burly, strong and energetic man, and a great writer with lifelong "sexual interest".

After his relationship with his wife broke down, he pursued Juliet Derouet and nicknamed her "Ru Ru". Their love lasted fifty years.

Although Ru Ru is indispensable, Hugo still wants to "look around". Hugo conquered a long list of women. 184 1 year, Hugo met leonie bill, the wife of oni, who was 20 years younger than him. 1845 On July 2nd, Hugo and Leoni were caught red-handed. At that time, he had been a member of the House of Lords for two months. Republican newspapers openly mocked Hugo and said, "A famous successful man was found to have committed adultery with a painter's wife. This is simply a farce. "

Besides, Hugo has other lovers: actress Alice Ozzie (taken from his son Charles), tragic actress Miss Rachel, upper-class lady Genentel and poet Louis Collet. Later, when he was exiled to Autheville, Hugo asked a maid to live on the same floor with him. He owned them during his writing.

As Hugo grows older, he needs more women. Juliet once said regretfully, "He is fascinated by fresh flesh." The doctor told him not to keep looking for a "young woman", but he still went his own way. It was not until 1885 that death ended Hugo's crazy "sexual interest".

Like most men in the19th century, lev tolstoy lost his virginity in a brothel when he was only 16 years old. On this matter, he later recalled: "My brother dragged me into a brothel for the first time, and I did it. I sat at the foot of that woman's bed and cried. "

Tolstoy lived in the alternation of passion and conscience condemnation all his life. "Playing with women," he wrote in his diary, "is definitely a social evil, so avoid women as much as possible." But he didn't follow his warning, just as he later admitted to Chekhov that he was "insatiable".

When he lived in his manor in 1849, he seduced a maid-a girl with black eyes named Gasha.

Tolstoy later talked to Gorky about his regrets in sexual life. He said: "People can endure earthquakes, plagues, fatal diseases and various forms of mental torture; But the most terrible tragedy that befalls people is always the tragedy in the bedroom. "

Tolstoy struggled with lust all his life. Regarding how men treat their lust, he once summed it up in his diary: "The best way of sexual desire is to (1) completely destroy its inner nature; Secondly, (2) live with a kind and loyal woman, have children with her, help each other and love each other; (3) Go to a brothel when the desire is unbearable; (4) Relationships with all kinds of women are short, and none of them are long-lasting; (5) having sex with a young girl and then abandoning her; (6) committing adultery with a married woman; The worst thing is to live with an unfaithful and immoral woman. "

In addition, Mark Twain likes to write some pornographic articles and poems, and sometimes he takes them to his favorite Woods to read, laughing hysterically while reading; Dostoevsky's sexual fantasies and foot fetishes also said at the age of 57: "My sexual fantasies and sexual ecstasy are endless." ; Joyce, the author of Ulysses, is a obscene fetish-she likes bras and underwear used by women; Hemingway's strange talk about sex, for example, he thinks that the number of orgasms in a man's life is quantitative, so it is best to take it seriously and use it separately. These practices and remarks of the screenwriter make us feel different from the image in our minds before.

Among the screenwriters, Gide and Wilde are both gay, and Wilde was sentenced to two years of hard labor for homosexual behavior, which became a sensational news. As for D.H. Lawrence, his friend and biographer Richard Eddington said, "I think D.H. Lawrence is 85% heterosexual and 15% gay."

All these show that the writers' group is a special and complicated group, and it is often difficult for us to see the whole picture from their works.

Music is intoxicating and elegant, and I am surprised by some remarks made by Mozart and Chopin, musicians I admire.

Mozart is regarded as a typical "pure genius" in history, the greatest master of musical skills in ancient and modern times, and one of the most creative artists in the world. When he was young, he wrote many letters to his cousin. From these letters, we can see that he has a certain degree of fecal addiction tendency, that is, he likes to mix sex with excretion. For example, in a letter, he wrote: "Oh, my ass is on fire! ..... There may be feces coming out! ..... What's that? -Maybe it's ... Oh, honey! ..... How can I believe my ears? Yes, it is-what a long and sad voice! ..... I put urine on your nose, and it will flow into your mouth ... Do you still love me? "

However, since he fell in love with constance, such obscene words no longer appeared in his letters.

Chopin is a pioneer of romantic piano playing style. In addition, he also enjoys a high reputation for creating many piano music with bitterness and sweetness, and is known as the "piano poet".

It is said that he once wrote an erotic letter to his first female student, saying, "I really want something to fall into your little hole, like black keys in D major, one of the two white keys ..."

Whether this is true or not is unknown.

The above is a glimpse of the sexual quirks of art celebrities. Artists are a talented group and often attract women. Many of their weird personalities may cause disharmony between love and marriage, which may be related to the formation of these quirks. Other reasons are mostly related to their own growth experience, or physical or psychological. Maybe it can be studied as a topic, but this article is only for recording and is also an accidental idea when reading. As a collection, it begins with a letter.
