More quotes by Georges Braque
In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that cannot be explained.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
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
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
Georges Braque
The function of Art is to disturb. Science reassures.
Georges Braque
Poetry is to a painting what life is to man.
Georges Braque
Whatever is in common is true but likeness is false.
Georges Braque
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
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
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
Georges Braque
I thought that from the moment someone else could do the same as myself, there was no difference between the pictures and they should not be signed. Afterwards I realized it was not so and began to sign my pictures again. Picasso had begun again anyhow.
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
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
I considered that the painter's personality should be kept out of things, and therefore pictures should be anonymous. It was I who decided that pictures should not be signed, and for a time Picasso did the same.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
With age, art and life become one.
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
