From The First Shock Of The Contemplation

The Importance Of An Artist Is To Be Measured By The Quantity Of New Signs Which He Has Introduced To The Language Of Art.

The Splitting Up Of Color [as Impressionists Did] Brought The Splitting Up Of Form And Contour . . . Everything Is Reduced To A Mere Sensation Of The Retina, But One Which Destroys All Tranquility Of Surface And Contour. Objects Are Differentiated Only By The Luminosity That Is Given Them.

Beauty Comes From The Balance Between Two And Three Dimensions, Between Abstraction And Representation - I Seek The Equilibrium Behind Changing Appearances.

I Am Unable To Make Any Distinction Between The Feeling I Get From Life And The Way I Translate That Feeling Into Painting.

I Dream Of An Art Of Balance, Of Quietness, Something Analogous To A Good Armchair.
