There are some things in painting which cannot be explained, and that something is essential.

"The work of art must seize upon you...carry you away."

The purpose of painting is to decorate the walls. Therefore it has to be as rich as possible

And if out of a million visitors there is even one to whom art means something, that is enough to justify museums.

A painter who has the feel of breasts and buttocks is saved.

I had wrung impressionism dry and I finally came to the conclusion that I know neither how to paint nor how to draw.

I consider that women who are authors, lawyers, and politicians are monsters.
