The relation of color and the relation of proportion are both based on the relation of position.

I hate everything approaching temperamental inspiration,'sacred fire'and all those attributes of genius which serve only as cloaks for untidy minds.

What is natural does not have to be a representation of something. I'm now working on a thing that is a reconstruction of a starry sky, and yet I'm making it without a given from nature. Someone who says he uses a theme from nature can be right, but also someone who says he uses nothing at all.

The only problem in art is to achieve a balance between the subjective and the objective.

The relation of color and the relation of proportion are both based on the relation of position.

This new plastic idea will ignore the particulars of appearance, that is to say, natural form and colour. On the contrary it should find its expression in the abstraction of form and colour, that is to say, in the straight line and the clearly defined primary colour.

By the unification of architecture, sculpture and painting a new plastic reality will be created.
