If painting doesn't offer a way to dream and create emotions, then it's not worth it.
Pierre SoulagesIt's fascinating to think that as soon as man came into existence, he started painting.
Pierre SoulagesI always liked paintings to be walls rather than windows. When we see a painting on a wall, it's a window, so I often put my paintings in the middle of the space to make a wall.
Pierre SoulagesA window looks outside, but a painting should do the opposite - it should look inside of us. When I put them in the middle of the room, I attach the paintings at the top to the ceiling and on the bottom to the floor. I prefer this to just hanging them from the ceiling because it creates a place in a space, like a wall.
