A certain blue enters your soul

If it is practiced by a man of taste, the photograph will have the appearance of art (but) the photographer must...intervene as little as possible, so as not to lose the objective charm which it naturally possesses.

Drawing is . . . not an exercise of particular dexterity, but above all a means of expressing intimate feelings and moods.

Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence.

I don't paint things. I only paint the difference between things.

In art, truth and reality begin when one no longer understands what one is doing or what one knows, and when there remains an energy that is all the stronger for being constrained, controlled and compressed.

My choice of colors does not rest on any scientific theory, it is based on observation, on feeling, on the experience of my sensibility.
