More quotes by Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
With age, art and life become one.
Georges Braque
Scientific perspective forces the objects in a picture to disappear away from the beholder instead of bringing them within his reach as painting should.
Georges Braque
Emotion should not be rendered by an excited trembling it can neither be added on nor be imitated. It is the seed, the work is the flower.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
Art is made to trouble but science reassures.
Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque
Illusions... are simple facts, but they have been created by the mind, by the spirit, and they are one of the justifications of the new spatial configuration.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
I find that it is important to work slowly. Anyone who looks at such a canvas will follow the same path the artist took, and he will experience that it is the path which counts more than the outcome of it, and that the route taken has been the most interesting part.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that cannot be explained.
Georges Braque
When objects shattered into fragments appeared in my painting about 1909, this for me was a way of getting closest to the object... Fragmentation helped me to establish space and movement in space.
Georges Braque
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
Perspective starts from one viewpoint and never gets away from it. But the viewpoint is quite unimportant. It is though someone were to draw profiles all his life, leading people to think that a man has only one eye.
Georges Braque
You put a blob of yellow here, and another at the further edge of the canvas: straight away a rapport is established between them. Colour acts in the way that music does.
Georges Braque
