Text Quotes
The big moment came when it was decided to paint...Just To Paint. The gesture on the canvas was a gesture of liberation, from Value- political, aesthetic, moral. (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Kitsch is the daily art of our time, as the vase or the hymn was for earlier generations. For the sensibility it has that arbitrariness and importance which works take on when they are no longer noticeable elements of the environment. In America kitsch is Nature. The Rocky Mountains have resembled fake art for a century (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Only conservatives believe that subversion is still being carried on in the arts and that society is being shaken by it. Advanced art today is no longer a cause -it contains no moral imperative. There is no virtue in clinging to principles and standards, no vice in selling or in selling out (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
It is not logical for art to be logical. Art goes against the grain of the times as readily as it goes with it and at the very same moment. Instead of seeking the nearest exit, art responds to a new situation by uncovering a labyrinth of problems (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Whoever undertakes to create soon finds himself engaged in creating himself. Self-transformation and the transformation of others have constituted the radical interest of our century, whether in painting, psychiatry, or political action (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The story of Americans is the story of arrested metamorphoses. Those who achieve success come to a halt and accept themselves as they are. Those who fail become resigned and accept themselves as they are (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
American time has stretched around the world. It has become the dominant tempo of modern history, especially of the history of Europe (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
America is the civilization of people engaged in transforming themselves. In the past, the stars of the performance were the pioneer and the immigrant. Today, it is youth and the Black (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
They had enough. They wanted to enjoy their life (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
A painting that is an act is inseparable from the biography of the artist (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Loiter in the neighborhood of a problem. After a while a solution strolls by (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Form, color, composition, drawing, are auxiliaries, any one of which... can be dispensed with (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
A painter with prestige among painters is bound to be discovered sooner or later (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
In reality, however, an artist is a product of art (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The new painting has broken down every distinction between art and life (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Whoever undertakes to create soon finds himself engaged in creating himself (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The artist is obliged to invent the self who will paint his pictures (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
An artist is a person who has invented an artist (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The aim of every authentic artist is not to conform to the history of art, but to release himself from it in order to replace it with his own history (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The artist does not exist except as a personification, a figure of speech that represents the sum total of art itself. It is painting that is the genius of the painter, poetry of the poet, and a person is a creative artist to the extent that he participates in that genius (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The differences between revolution in art and revolution in politics are enormous. Revolution in art lies not in the will to destroy but in the revelation of what has already been destroyed. Art kills only the dead (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The purpose of education is to keep a culture from being drowned in senseless repetitions, each of which claims to offer a new insight (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The values to which the conservative appeals are inevitably caricatured by the individuals designated to put them into practice (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
What better way to prove that you understand a subject than to make money out of it? (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Today, each artist must undertake to invent himself, a lifelong act of creation that constitutes the essential content of the artist’s work (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The struggle to make an absolute statement in an individually conceived vocabulary accounts for the profound tensions inherent in the best modern work (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Both art and the artist lack identity and define themselves only through their encounter with each other (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
The current demoralization of the art world is attributable at least in part to museum interference, ideological and practical, with ongoing creation in art (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Art has arrived at the paradox that tradition itself requires the occurrence of radical attacks on tradition (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
Abandoned by philosophy, politics, and sociology, historical determinism continues to hold out in formalist art criticism (Harold Rosenberg Quotes)
