More quotes by Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
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
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
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
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 am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
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
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
Georges Braque
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
It is the limitation of means that determines style, gives rise to new forms and makes creativity possible.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
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
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
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
