We Are All Born Children- The Trick

I Consider A Work Of Art As A Product Of Calculations, Calculations That Are Frequently Unknown To The Author Himself.

No Doubt, It Is Useful For An Artist To Know All The Forms Of Art Which Have Preceded Or Which Accompany His. That Is A Sign Of Strength If It Is A Question Of Looking For A Stimulus Or Recognizing Mistakes He Must Avoid.

Go And Do The Things You Can't. That Is How You Get To Do Them.

If You Don't Know What Color To Take, Take Black.

The Academic Teaching On Beauty Is False. We Have Been Misled, But So Completely Misled That We Can No Longer Find So Much As A Shadow Of A Truth Again. The Beauties Of The Parthenon, The Venuses, The Nymphs, The Narcisusses, Are So May Lies. Art Is Not The Application Of A Canon Of Beauty, But What The Instinct And The Brain Can Conceive Independently Of That Canon.
