More quotes by Georges Braque
It is the limitation of means that determines style, gives rise to new forms and makes creativity possible.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
Whatever is in common is true but likeness is false.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
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
Thanks to the oval I have discovered the meaning of the horizontal and the vertical.
Georges Braque
With age, art and life become one.
Georges Braque
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
Georges Braque
Poetry is to a painting what life is to man.
Georges Braque
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
Georges Braque
Nature is a mere pretext for a decorative composition, plus sentiment. It suggests emotion, and I translate that emotion into art.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
Georges Braque
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
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
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
