...i Am Driven On By An Idea

What's So Astonishing About Not Understanding? There Are So Many Things In Art, Beginning With Art Itself, That One Doesn't Understand. A Painter Doesn't See Everything That He Has Put In His Painting.

Each Work Of Art Is A Collection Of Signs Invented During The Picture's Execution To Suit The Needs Of Their Position. Taken Out Of The Composition For Which They Were Created, These Signs Have No Further Use.

When I Paint Green, It Doesn't Mean Grass; When I Paint Blue, It Doesn't Mean Sky.

I Counted Solely On The Clarity Of Expression Of My Work To Gain My Ends.

A Work Of Art Must Carry In Itself Its Complete Significance And Impose It Upon The Beholder Even Before He Can Identify The Subject-matter.
