I Invent Nothing, I Rediscover.

The Body Always Expresses The Spirit Whose Envelope It Is. And For Him Who Can See, The Nude Offers The Richest Meaning.

In Front Of The Model I Work With The Same Will To Reproduce Truth As If I Were Making A Portrait. I Do Not Correct Nature, I Incorporate Myself Into It; It Directs Me. I Can Only Work With A Model. The Sight Of Human Forms Nourishes And Comforts Me.

In Art, Immorality Cannot Exist. Art Is Always Sacred.

The Nude Alone Is Well Dressed

I Choose A Block Of Marble And Chop Off Whatever I Don't Need.
