More quotes by Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
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
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
Art is a wound turned into light.
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
The function of Art is to disturb. Science reassures.
Georges Braque
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
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
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
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
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
Georges Braque
