It is a task of art to express clear vision of reality.

Every true artist has been inspired more by the beauty of lines and color and the relationships between them than by the concrete subject of the picture.

Art is not made for anybody and is, at the same time, for everybody.

Cubism did not accept the logical consequences of its own discoveries; it was not developing abstraction towards its own goal, the expression of pure reality.

Why should art continue to follow nature when every other field has left nature behind?

In art the search for a content which is collectively understandable is false; the content will always be individual.

All painting - the painting of the past as well as of the present - shows us that its essential plastic means were only line and color.
