Text Quotes
The personal lives of painters are tragic and inevitable and do not explain the artist. For the artist is his work and no longer human  (The Artist Quotes) If you address yourself to an audience, you accept at the outset the basic premises that unite the audience. You put on the audience, repeating cliches familiar to it. But artists don’t address themselves to audiences; they create audiences. The artist talks to himself out loud. If what he has to say is significant, others hear and are affected  (The Artist Quotes) The artist should fear to become the slave of detail. He should strive to express his thought and not the surface of it. What avails a storm cloud accurate in form and color if the storm is not therein?  (The Artist Quotes) In printmaking, I essentially use the same process as in painting with one important exception... to try, with sensitivity to the medium to emphasize what printing can do best... better than say, painting or collaging or watercolour or drawing or whatever... Otherwise, the artist expresses the same vision in graphics that he does in his other work  (The Artist Quotes) The stuff of thought is the seed of the artist. Dreams form the bristles of the artist’s brush. As the eye functions as the brain’s sentry, I communicate my innermost perceptions through the art, my worldview  (The Artist Quotes) When you record for a label, they own that material in perpetuity, meaning that they can release, chose not to release, or repackage it any way they so choose... with or without the permission of the artist  (The Artist Quotes) As a young woman, I had been seeking experience, knowledge, truth, the stuff writers need in their work, but when the artist actually kicked in, I came to understand that in this romantic relationship I was not free to be myself, or to find myself, in order to begin the true work I needed to do  (The Artist Quotes) People mistakenly think that art is about nature, or about an artists feelings about nature. It is instead a path of enlightenment and pleasure, one of many paths, where nature and the artists feelings are merely raw material  (The Artist Quotes) It is not the natural movement of film that gives the objects their expression, but the artistic movement, that is to say, a rhythmical movement regulated by itself in which variations and pulsations form a part of the artistic design  (The Artist Quotes) The thrill of creation which we experience which we experience when we see a masterpiece is not unlike the feeling of the artist who created it; such a work is a fragment of the world which he has annexed and which belongs to him alone  (The Artist Quotes) I still paint. I love the joy that color can give to our lives and to our communities. I try to bring something of the artist in me to my politics  (The Artist Quotes) The artist must be like a heart surgeon. He must approach something with sympathy, but with a sort of coldness and work and work until he finds some kind of perfection in his work. You can’t have blood splashing all over the place. Things must be done very cleanly  (The Artist Quotes) An artist is above all a human being, profoundly human to the core. If the artist can’t feel everything that humanity feels, if the artist isn’t capable of loving until he forgets himself and sacrifices himself if necessary, if he won’t put down his magic brush and head the fight against the oppressor, then he isn’t a great artist  (The Artist Quotes) The artist has to be something like a whale swimming with his mouth wide open, absorbing everything until he has what he really needs  (The Artist Quotes) The creative man with an insight into human nature, with the artistry to touch and move people, will succeed. Without them he will fail  (The Artist Quotes) In the fabric of space and in the nature of matter, as in a great work of art, there is, written small, the artist’s signature  (The Artist Quotes) There, at the centre, are the artists who really form the consciousness of their time; they respond deeply, intuitively to what is happening, what has happened, and what will happen, and their response is expressed in metaphor, in image and in fable  (The Artist Quotes) The artist, viewing his fellows through his personal vision, has through the ages attempted to portray what he sees and to present his understanding of it. Censorship in his case has perpetrated heavy and sometimes reprehensible blunders  (The Artist Quotes) The work of art expresses precisely those things which do not die. It must do so, however, in a form that bears witness to the artist’s own era  (The Artist Quotes) Rapacity plus taste is a formidable combination, since it so often passes for intelligence. One pities the artist in a world of such predators, all of whom are deeply engaged in the arts too  (The Artist Quotes) Freeform radio is an art form. The airwaves are the empty canvas, the producer is the artist, and the sound is the paint  (The Artist Quotes) I believe passionately that games are an art form and that the power of our medium flows from our audience, who are deeply involved in how the story unfolds and who have the uncontested right to provide constructive criticism. At the same time, I also believe in and support the artistic choices made by the development team  (The Artist Quotes) Compression is a necessary evil. The artists I know want to sound competitive. You don’t want your track to sound quieter or wimpier by comparison. We’ve raised the bar and you can’t really step back  (The Artist Quotes) What the artist must aim at above all else is this: to produce, by any process whatever, a work which by the life and humanity emanating from it communicates to the beholder  (The Artist Quotes) In creating a work of art, the psyche or soul of the artist ascends from the earthly realm into the heavenly. There, free of all images, the soul is fed in contemplation by the essences of the highest realm, knowing the permanent noumena of things. Then, satiated with this knowing, it descends again to the earthly realm. And precisely at the boundary between the two worlds, the soul’s spiritual knowledge assumes the shapes of symbolic imagery: and it is these images that make permanent the work of art. Art is thus materialized dream, separated from the ordinary consciousness of waking life  (The Artist Quotes) The artist is a collector. Not a hoarder, mind you, there’s a difference: Hoarders collect indiscriminately, artists collect selectively. They only collect things that they really love  (The Artist Quotes) The artist must train not only his eye but also his soul, so that it can weigh colours in its own scale and thus become a determinant in artistic creation  (The Artist Quotes) Imagination is a danger thus every totalitarian regime is frightened of the artist. It is the vocation of the prophet to keep alive the ministry of imagination to keep on conjouring and proposing alternative futures to the single one the king wants to urge as the only thinkable one  (The Artist Quotes) An exhibition is in many ways a series of conversations. Between the artist and viewer, curator and viewer, and between the works of art themselves. It clicks when an exhibition feels like it has answered some questions, and raised even more  (The Artist Quotes) The artist must try to raise the level of taste of the masses, not debase himself to the level of unformed and impoverished taste  (The Artist Quotes)
