Spectator Quotes

There cannot be any communication except through form. If there is no form, you cannot create emotion in the spectator Picture Quote #1

A picture is nothing but a bridge between the soul of the artist and that of the spectator Picture Quote #1

The artist invites the spectator to take a journey within the realm of the canvas... Without taking the journey, the spectator has really missed the essential experience of the picture Picture Quote #1

I’m not the sort of person who poses in their underwear. I hate the red carpet. I prefer the green grass. After the games the highlights show mostly the goals, scoring chances, assists. The spectator tends not to remember that as a goalkeeper I make difficult saves at great risk and start moves with my efforts Picture Quote #1

I believe that the artist doesn’t know what he does. I attach even more importance to the spectator than to the artist Picture Quote #1

The poetics of the oppressed is essentially the poetics of liberation: the spectator no longer delegates power to the characters either to think or to act in his place. The spectator frees himself; he thinks and acts for himself! Theatre is action! Picture Quote #1

The ultimate justification of the work of art is to help the spectator to become a work of art himself Picture Quote #1

There are so many wizards of the computer, stock market, test tube, and spectator sport, but so few of the art of life Picture Quote #1

As a spectator, you get to watch everything, but I’d much rather be playing than watching. I’ll have time to watch later in my career Picture Quote #1

The eyes sparked a lot of things for me, it could be somebody remembering something they had witnessed or heard about, or it could be the person in the photograph that was experiencing a tragedy or it could also be the spectator looking on from a safe distance Picture Quote #1

A genuine work of art usually displeases at first sight, as it suggests a deficiency in the spectator Picture Quote #1

The spectator, as he walks the gallery, will stop, or pass along. To give a general air of grandeur at first view, all trifling, or artful play of little lights, or an attention to a variety of tints is to be avoided; a quietness and simplicity must reign over the whole work, to which a breadth of uniform and simple color will very much contribute Picture Quote #1

A successful work will draw out the features capable of exciting a sense of beauty and interest in the spectator Picture Quote #1

The motif must always be set down in a simple way, easily grasped and understood by the beholder. By the elimination of superfluous detail, the spectator should be led along the road that the artist indicates to him, and from the first be made to notice what the artist has felt Picture Quote #1

The perfection of an art consists in the employment of a comprehensive system of laws, commensurate to every purpose within its scope, but concealed from the eye of the spectator; and in the production of effects that seem to flow forth spontaneously, as though uncontrolled by their influence, and which are equally excellent, whether regarded individually, or in reference to the proposed result Picture Quote #1

Naturalistic art, as we know it, is an art which imitates the appearance of things, not as they are in reality, but as they appear at one moment from the point of view of a single spectator. This is the effect of perspective. Nothing of this sort existed in prehistory Picture Quote #1

The truth is that works of art test the spectator much more than the spectator tests them Picture Quote #1

If you are afraid to write or edit or assemble or disassemble, you are merely a spectator. And you are trapped, trapped by the instructions of those you’ve chosen to follow. Twenty people in the field and eighty thousand in the stands. The spectators are the ones who paid to watch, but it’s the player on the field who are truly alive Picture Quote #1

I watch fights and I often feel morally compromised by it. I feel like I’m morally culpable for what’s occurring because I’m the spectator and ultimately footing the bill for the spectacle Picture Quote #1

The true work of art continues to unfold and create within the personality of the spectator. It is a continuous coming into being Picture Quote #1

The artist is a spectator, indifferent or impassioned, at the birth of his work, and observes the phases of its development Picture Quote #1

Ideally there is a type of continuum which flows from life through the artist’s sensibility and his materials... the concreteness of the object and its own life, through the spectator, with his expectations, interpretations, back into life Picture Quote #1

Postmodernism shifts the basis of the work of art from the object to the transaction between the spectator and the object and further deconstructs this by negating the presence of a representative objective viewer Picture Quote #1

If any of you happens to see an injustice, you are no longer a spectator, you are a participant, and you have an obligation to do something Picture Quote #1

While the goal of all movies is to entertain, the kind of film in which I believe goes one step further. It compels the spectator to examine one facet or another of his own conscience. It stimulates thought and sets the mental juices flowing Picture Quote #1

We are making politics a spectator sport in which our only duty is to vote somebody into office and then retire to the grandstands Picture Quote #1

Democracy is not a spectator sport, it’s a participatory event. If we don’t participate in it, it ceases to be a democracy Picture Quote #1

Thus I live in the world rather as a spectator of mankind than as one of the species Picture Quote #1

It is open to a war resister to judge between the combatants and wish success to the one who has justice on his side. By so judging he is more likely to bring peace between the two than by remaining a mere spectator Picture Quote #1

To become a spectator of one’s own life is to escape the suffering of life Picture Quote #1
