And So Artistic Creation Is The Metamorphosis

In Nature, Light Creates The Color. In The Picture, Color Creates The Light.

The Plastic Artist May Or May Not Be Concerned With Presenting A Superficial Appearance Of Reality, But He Is Always Concerned With The Presentation - If Not The Representation - Of The Plastic Values Of Reality.

Art Is Something Absolute, Something Positive, Which Gives Power Just As Food Gives Power. While Creative Science Is A Mental Food, Art Is The Satisfaction Of The Soul.

There Is In Reality No Such Thing As Modern Art. Art Is Carried On Up And Down In Immense Cycles Through Centuries And Civilizations.

The Creative Process Lies Not In Imitating, But In Paralleling Nature - Translating The Impulse Received From Nature Into The Medium Of Expression, Thus Vitalizing This Medium. The Picture Should Be Alive, The Statue Should Be Alive, And Every Work Of Art Should Be Alive.
