More quotes by Georges Braque

Image
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
Image
The function of Art is to disturb. Science reassures.
Georges Braque
Image
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
Image
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
Image
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
Image
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
Image
Art is made to trouble but science reassures.
Georges Braque
Image
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
Image
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
Georges Braque
Image
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
Image
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
Georges Braque
Image
Poetry is to a painting what life is to man.
Georges Braque
Image
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Image
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
Image
When one reaches this state of harmony between things and one's self, one reaches a state of perfect freedom and peace-which makes everything possible and right. Life becomes perpetual revelation.
Georges Braque
Image
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
Image
Critics should help people see for themselves they should never try to define things, or impose their own explanations, though I admit that if... a critic's explanations serve to increase the general obscurity, that's all to the good.
Georges Braque
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
