More quotes by Georges Braque
Poetry' is what distinguishes the cubist paintings Picasso and I arrived at intuitively from the lifeless sort of painting those who followed us tried, with such unfortunate results, to arrive at theoretically.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
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
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
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
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
Georges Braque
If we had never met Picasso, would Cubism have been what it is? I think not. The meeting with Picasso was a circumstance in our lives.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
With age, art and life become one.
Georges Braque
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
Georges Braque
The painter thinks in terms of form and color. The goal is not to be concerned with the reconstitution of an anecdotal fact, but with constitution of a pictorial fact.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
What greatly attracted me - and it was the main line of advance of Cubism - was how to give material expression to this new space of which I had an inkling. So I began to paint chiefly still lifes, because in nature there is a tactile, I would almost say a manual space... that was the earliest Cubist painting - the quest for space.
Georges Braque
