To Be An Artist, One Must .

My Cubist Paintings Are My Most Mexican.

Never Before Had A Woman Put Such Agonizing Poetry On Canvas As Frida Did

Every Good Composition Is Above All A Work Of Abstraction. All Good Painters Know This. But The Painter Cannot Dispense With Subjects Altogether Without His Work Suffering Impoverishment.

All Art Is Propaganda. ... The Only Difference Is The Kind Of Propaganda. Since Art Is Essential For Human Life, It Can't Just Belong To The Few. Art Is The Universal Language, And It Belongs To All Mankind. All Painters Have Been Propagandists Or Else They Have Not Been Painters. ... Every Artist Who Has Been Worth Anything In Art Has Been Such A Propagandist. ... Every Strong Artist Has Been A Propagandist. I Want To Be A Propagandist And I Want To Be Nothing Else. ... I Want To Use My Art As A Weapon.

Looking Back Upon My Work Today, I Think The Best I Have Done Grew Out Of Things Deeply Felt, The Worst From A Pride In Mere Talent.
