The more horrible this world (as today, for instance), the more abstract our art, whereas a happy world brings forth an art of the here and now.
Art does not reflect what is seen, rather it makes the hidden visible.
The painter should not paint what he sees, but what will be seen.
To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers.
It is a great difficulty and a great necessity to have to start with the smallest.
Make chance essential.
