To worship the product and ignore its development leads to dilettantism and reaction.
To sense the invisible and to be able to create it, that is art.
To me, art is the glorification of the human spirit.
I can't understand how anyone is able to paint without optimism.
What goes on in abstract art is the proclaiming of aesthetic principles... It is in our own time that we have become aware of pure aesthetic considerations. Art never can be imitation.
It is not the form that dictates the color, but the color that brings out the form.
