Silence is so accurate.

To me art is an adventure into an unknown world, which can be explored only by those willing to take the risk.

It is really a matter of ending this silence and solitude, of breathing and stretching one's arms again.

We assert that the subject is crucial and only that subject matter is valid which is tragic and timeless.

We favor the simple expression of the complex thought. We are for the large shape because it has the impact of the unequivocal. We wish to reassert the picture plane. We are for flat forms because they destroy illusion and reveal truth.

We are concerned with similar states of consciousness and relationship to the world.. ..If previous abstractions paralleled the scientific and objective preoccupations of our times, ours are finding a pictoral equivalent for man's new knowledge and consciousness of his more complex inner self.

If our titles recall the known myths of antiquity, we have used them again because they are the eternal symbols upon which we must fall back to express basic psychological ideas.. ...(they) express something real and existing in ourselves.
